I had this desire to write until it took me 5 minutes to get logged into our blog. Now I am just frustrated that it took me so long to log in that I can't even remember the topic that I wanted to write about.
I have to say that this school year is going pretty well because we finally figured out a good work schedule which makes it work with the family. I get up early (which I enjoy) and get into work by 730am so I can leave by 4pm and pick up Blake. Blake and I then sit down and work on his homework while I fix dinner. Billy is then behind me with the little ones and it is such a blessing to have dinner ready for them the minute they walk in the door.
The kids are much happier getting to play and hang out with us and the stress level had reduced dramatically. While we have some other things going on and maybe one day I will post about it.
As most of you know, I am fairly private person however an open book when asked. I am terrible liar and I am who I am. I care way more than I will ever let to friends and family. I recently texted one of my dear friends and asked if I could vent. She was immediately right there on the other side of my phone letting me tell her about my "terrible Tuesday". The day started and ended on a crappy note but my friend made me feel better. I have guilt about being a working mom and often blame our issues and concerns with the kids based on the fact that I work. My friend who stays home with her kids reassured me that they are going through the same things with their kids and that it has nothing to do with me working.
I was so lucky to be able to talk to this dear friend because she put things in perspective and made me feel guilt free which is hard to do. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
