I came to a realization that all mom’s need some time off for themselves without kids. In fact the more children you have the more time you should get 😁. I was ok with not having time for myself when it was just alejandra plus I worked too, but now that I have two I can definitely see the importance.
Everyone has this persona that a stay home mom has it easy and that is far from the truth. Being on call 24/7 is draining and seems never ending. As a mom we wear multiple hats and multitask the shindigs out of a day. Sometimes we ask ourselves how in the world did we get that done , COFFEE that is how. If we miss our cup of caffeine oh snap things are not going to happen.
I am thankful that I am a stay at home MOM but i do miss working and being around other adults without children, so you can say they both have their pros and cons. I am thankful and love watching my children grow up . There was a point in my life that I was told differently but thanks to the lord I am here with them.
I am working so hard to make some time for myself but, what gets me is guilt. I know you moms feel me on this and it’s a mental obstacle for me because I know I need it but I feel guilty asking for it. I have notice that when I don’t get a break even if it’s once a month which I’m grateful for, I tend to be edgy with my kids and I hate that. It can be so overwhelming not taking a break, .It’s a working progress but in working on mommy time so I can be a better mother for my children and a better wife. Yeah let’s not forget about that 😉.
I am so tired but I tend to have my time at night when everyone is sleeping even if it’s for a few minutes. Tonight I am actually baking lactation cookies.
Goodnight y’all
Thank you for being part of my Journey, God Bless. Yvette Norris
