Ever get sick of reading blogs and wonder why you are apparently the only one stressed out? I do. I will read mushy, gushy words of soaking up every minute of your kiddos and who cares about cleaning and you shower every day (without kids at your feet) and then you bake because you have time and your kids either 1. nap for 3 hrs or 2. never complain or throw fits. And nothing ever throws a wrench in that?!
Really?
I truely LOVE my kids, adore and respect my husband, and feel incredibly blessed with where God has placed me in this time of my life. Beyond blessed, even. But, truthfully, I am almost always tired, lose my patience frequently, rarely get a daily shower, potty with someone at my feet every.single.time., bake bc I've given up at being skinny, and laugh at inappropriate things. Life is real and at times real crazy.
Here's some a reminder that most of us feel the same way. Happy Weekend....

LOVE THIS!!! It is so true! Thank you Leah for showing me that we are not the only ones with this craziness:)
Court- thanks for being real! it's so true!
See I always type blogs about how I am so tired and my kid is so crazy and then I get too scared to post them because I don't people to think I am ungrateful and bratty. But if that's what you want... :-)
P.S I like your blog.
P.P.S I never bake anything.
Sorry- can't listen to the video because our audio is dead. :( Don't go read my recent post... lol. I definitely get stressed out at times and have pity-parties for myself... but I can definitely tell my perspective has changed in the last few years on a lot of things. Soak up every minute of the tiredness and kid-at-your-hip moments because it will be different all too soon! :)
That song was funny and so true!!
Oh- I know what you mean... I gag when I read the blogs that are all "perfect" because you know it isn't real. I try to write mine exactly how I would tell it in real life, ykwim? And about the sea horse...do your girls have bendaroos? They are fun but soo sticky! I won't let the girls play with them on the table anymore because it makes a mess!
