I just want to spend a week like I used to ...
I want to lay on the floor and play with blocks.
To chase the boy around the dining room table.
To sit on the front porch when the sun is out and swing together on the porch swing.
I want to take a walk around the block (on the warm days).
To eat lunch together, taking as much time as we want.
To run out for a brief trip to Target or some other favorite shopping destination.
I want to have a moment to actually sit back and relax when the little guy goes down for his nap.
To catch up on old episodes of Bones.
To arrange a play date!
Sometimes I really want things to go back to the way they used to be ... When my biggest concern was what to start for dinner at 4:15.
I wish that things were that simple again.
Finding the time to be a mom and work from home simultaneously is really starting to catch up with me.
I'm starting to wear thin and I don't want to be a disappointment on either end.
I just want to spend a week like I used to ...
Praying for you, Emily! It has to be SO hard!!! You are an amazing mother/wife/woman!
ReplyDeleteI make $20 for a 20 minute survey!
ReplyDeleteGuess what? This is exactly what major companies are paying for. They need to know what their customer base needs and wants. So large companies pay millions of dollars per month to the average person. In return, the average person, like myself, answers some questions and gives them their opinion.
