Yesterday was a bad day. Not for any particular reason, just long and boring. Today has been the opposite, for which I am grateful! The thing about being a stay at home mom is that everyday is different, but painfully the same. It may not have sounded like it yesterday, but I am so grateful to be in a position to choose between staying home with my kids or getting a job. What freedom this gives me in life. I know that not everyone has the choice...some moms and dads, no matter what, have to have a job to make ends meet. It is not lost on me that my position is a great privilege.
Today's afternoon has been typical; much like yesterday. However, having such a productive morning has made it easier to make it a productive afternoon. I have sorted clean laundry (that has been sitting in a basket in our living room for well over a week), I ran the vacuum in the bedrooms, and I'm not nearly as annoyed today as I would have been yesterday, that sweet Drew is not taking his nap.
Thank you to all my readers for giving me a place to vent all the crazy feelings one feels as a stay at home parent. Blogging just may be the activity that gets me through some of my crazy afternoons. (As I type this, Drew is in his room screaming that he doesn't want to take a nap...and here I sit blogging away! Awesome.)
