Some Days, Other Days

Some days I feel like I have tons to blog and talk about. Other days I feel like I have nothing important to say at all.

Some days I feel like I should be Mother of the Year. Other days I figure I'll be lucky if the twins are still speaking to me when they turn 18.

Some days I feel nothing but love; huge, encompassing love from Michael, Charlotte, and Gavin. Other days I feel completely unappreciated.

Some days I want to be a stay-at-home mom forever. Other days I can't wait to go back to work.

Some days I think I manage the demands of being a wife and mother pretty well. Other days I ignore the dust building up on the TV screen and order pizza for dinner.

Some days (most days) I'm happy with the way my life has turned out. Other days, I wish I could go back about 15 years and do it all differently.

Do you have days like this too?

  1. Wish you lived closer. Our babes could play together and we could muse together. I could have written this blog today (of course, changing the names to protect the not-so-innocent).

    Hope you are having a better day.

  2. EVERYONE has days like that. Including all those moms that seem to be so perfectly organized, unruffled and serene that it makes you want to puke. Not to mention making you feel like you must be some kind of idiot for feeling like you can't do it all. They just don't admit it. I admit it...totally. Some days I can't believe how lucky I am, how completely and totally happy I am with the perfection that is my life (most days), other days I want to rip my hair out and run screaming to a secluded island somewhere and never come back. ;) And I thank god for other moms who admit it too and make me feel human. So thanks.
