The past few weeks have been hectic at best. Sometimes the roller coaster moments of parenthood can be exhausting. I have this complex where I try to do more than I can actually handle. This leads to exhaustion, and the repeated smacking upside my head of reality and what I can and cannot do. There are times when I just have to say no, or come to terms with not being able to juggle everything at once.
Prioritization and time management are a Moms best friend, but life with kids sometimes throws that out the window. Our best is all we can expect from ourselves, and that is okay!! One of the most important things we need in our lives is a great support network, a cheering squad, a rock, a shoulder, whatever you name it, a support system is what it boils down to. We need someone who loves us for us, accepts us for us, flaws and all. We need someone who is as dedicated to us as we are to them.
Life is too short and precious to be spent feeling insecure, unhappy, and overwhelmed. We should enjoy our families, ourselves, our friends, all the relationships in our lives. We should be happy, not miserable. We should have fun, and be responsible. We should teach our children how to be loving, independent, responsible, and silly. Lead by example and the kids will follow. Do not fall into that do as I say, not as I do frame of mind.
Live life to the fullest, never regreting any moment. Teach the children well...and they will blossom like flowers in a garden.
