My life is crazy.
Work-out-side-the-home moms have my applause. I don't have a clue how you people do it.
I've had a little taste of what it will be like when all the kids move away and I don't see them on a regular basis.
Part of me enjoys this freedom of "not the mamma" for 1/2 a day each day...
but...
there is a part of me that misses the day to day 'little things'.
Oh, they all have been talking and walking for years....so it's not those momentous firsts.
But just the day-to-day jokes, stories and 'yah-had-to-be-there' moments that I'll never get back.
I know it's for a good purpose, but I can't help being a little homesick.
It's not forever...
And I can do hard things.
The part I detested the most is the testing my kids did at first.
Man, that part STUNK!
But we refused to give up and I think we've actually found what works for all of us.
