the joy in the everyday things

I love being able to relax and just play with my 3 year old. I used to have alot of guilt if I didn't run around plan something do something be supermom or be a working mom. I still get up and do all the things a domestic goddess should do. make beds, plan dinner, clean the house, put in the laundry in all that stuff but I love to throw on some sweats and just paint with her and read.  Let her "cook" for me and go shopping at the store, which is the pantry lol. I love it !!!!


I have come to conclusion that I would rather go with out  some new games.. or a dinner out.... or some new outfits for the ability to stay home.  I won't lie I do sometimes miss being with other adults and feeling a sense of worth. But than I look around and know I run a HELL of a house. my kids are good kind respectful lil boogers with wild imaginations which I adore. They are not bumps on a log that have been told not to express themselves, which btw here, where I live is the norm.


I enjoy the day to day routine with the ocassional Girl Scout meeting, the PTA get togethers, and the SCENTSY parties. I love being a mommy. !

I go back to work in August.....I am scared and excited at the same time.......what pisses me off is that employers think that just because you have been a stay at home mom you have forgotten all your skills.......dumb asses what do they know!

Nae: You should have a huge sense of self worth because of the job you are doing at home. My wife dealt with some of the same stuff when she decided to stay home with our kids, but it has definitely paid off. Life moves so fast and before you know it your kids will be grown up, cherish the time you have now with them - it definitely sounds like you do. Keep up the good work. Now if you could only keep LOONEY in line!

I gotta say, as nice as it would be to have more money I take a lot of joy in the fact that my wife can stay home and be mommy. There's nothing that a mother can do that is more valuable than that.\r \r Kids > money
