I would say you have missed the one valid point that you are indeed a mother. A mother with a heart of gold that wants only the best for your son and family. The vital part is you do you best, you make list and you some how find a few moments in your well being to get some sleep in order to wake up a do it all over again. Only a mother such as yourself would be so hard on yourself. That in itself proves yourself worthy. I am sure why you would say it hurts. Here is a tip: open your photo library, start at the beginning and stroll as fast as your little finger can take you. Watch your memories flash before you, watch the memories, watch the laughter...then sit back and smile. There is not hurt I can assure you. We don't typically capture those on film. Smile some more.<br /><br />As far as worrying about keeping up with the Joneses. Don't. As long as you keep learning in a fun environment, your little superman will surprise you. Being a summertime Mom is a job that you have tried for, oh, let's see...27 days (give or take). Being a career driven woman and mother is something you have aspired your whole life. Seriously, you have got to cut yourself some slack. <br /><br />Believe me, there have been a thousand times when I have cried because I can't wash another damn dish or feel like shit because I ran out of bananas for breakfast. Frustrated because I can't keep up. But, at the end of the day when the little pitter patter feet love me more than the world itself, some how I muster up the strength to do it again. And I'll be damn if my monthly hormones are going to deter me.<br /><br />As your friend I tell you this: you are not a quitter. you are a survivor. i say just do your best. the people that need that part of you are probably in arm reach. <br /><br />lov ya sista girl.<br />katKat Creechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10883187074803621624noreply@blogger.com
