How is it us mothers can find so much to task ourselves with?
Is it because each child we add to our mix is another 500 hours of community effort?
I think that all my boys think I am a machine and have no need for rest!!
The husband complains about not getting it enough.
I complain about not getting enough but it isn't what he thinks it is!
His it - well we all know what that is! ha ha
My it - massage my neck, feet, back, shoulders and hey - that might lead into his "it"!
Just the nightly thoughts of a woman that still has to email exchange students that are arriving soon (2 of them), family in another state (haven't been near them in forever) then finish marking the points on the boys behavior / chore chart, clean up the kitchen, fold laundry, wash another load, put the dogs to bed and that's a light night!!
I have a quote by Irving Berlin
"Life is 10 percent what you make it and 90 percent how you take it"
Funny thing is . . . when I am doing all this, the kids are in bed and it is peaceful!
That is this mom's idea of a daily party!!
