Not too much has been going on lately...or at least I've been too busy to ponder on much. But here's just a short, quick, exciting note....Saturday is MOMMY'S DAY OUT! :)
I love my kids. I love being a mom. I wish I could stay at home with them and never miss a minute. Realization: I need a break! The insanity of work (which is typically worse than Tammy's Playschool across town), the stress of STILL trying to move back into the farmhouse, no help with housework, and then not to mention the never-ending work that goes along with a horse training facility, family, and farm, I have had it! I need a vacation day!
So, after a good but stressful weekend, I messaged a friend that we should find babysitters this weekend and go do something together. No kids. No husbands. And maybe no cell phones. I lucked out this morning and my mother-in-law offered to come to Leitchfield to watch the kids so I could get a break. Cha-ching! Babysitter, check!
Plans are in the works and, eventhough it's a farsight from Daytona Beach, Rough River here I come! A day of lounging and pretending the world doesn't exist. How wonderful! And hopefully this relaxation and girl time will let me come home and appreciate everything I have a little more.
I am very lucky. I have a wonderful family that would do anything for me. But sometimes you have to tell that family to shut up and leave you the heck alone! But instead of that, I think I'll just run away for half a day....and I'll be so glad to get back to my babies that afternoon!
I'm a mom of 3: a toddler, an infant, and an Angel. And I'm married to the man of my dreams. Life isn't always easy, but we deal with it. I'm sharing my story to release the feelings that are driving me insane...and hopefully to help other people in similar situations. God bless you. He certainly has blessed me. "If God will bring you to it, He will see you through it!"
