I guess it is cliche to discuss how hard of work it is to be a mom. Anyone who is a mom or has been around one knows that we literally never stop. It's absolutely constant. (And with my daughter there isn't even the night-time to recharge.) I feel like I literally have a million things running through my mind at any moment from shopping lists, to research ideas, calls I need to return, laundry to do, things I feel guilty about doing or not doing, it's nonstop. I guess I just wish once and I while someone would act shocked, amazed, and impressed that I (or any mom for that matter) can do it. Today as I brought in two HUGE (and expensive) bags of groceries and prepared dinner, running around cooking, practicing a song for church, cleaning up and thinking about all I have to do, I just wanted someone to say, (strike that, I want someone to shout) "OH SWEET LORD, HOW DO YOU DO IT?!?!??! COME TO MENTION IT, HOW DO YOU DO IT LOOKING SO DAMN GOOD? I CAN NOT IMAGINE WHAT KIND OF AMAZING CREATURE YOU HAVE TO BE TO DO ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU DO EVERYDAY!"
Is that so much to ask?
No, it's not to much to ask. I think mother's are often under appreciated.
