sometimes.


sometimes i get stressed about money. i feel bad spending it or complaining that we don't have enough when i'm not bringing any in.  

sometimes i feel like i'm "just" a stay at home mom, as if it's not good enough.

sometimes i feel like i need to do more.

sometimes i get annoyed because my husband works too long and too hard.

sometimes i feel selfish.

sometimes i cry about above things.

BUT

i always have a husband that reminds me the being a stay at home mom IS good enough and supports my decision 110%

i always have a baby boy that brings more joy and happiness into my life than i could have ever imagined.  who turns my tears into laughter within minutes.

i always have friends who will bring me drinks and spend hours doing nothing but talking.  and those hours doing nothing usually end up being the best part of my day.

i always have a Heavenly Father who i can turn to in prayer, who will comfort me when i feel down and send angels into my life to lift me up.

I feel the same way! Man I wish we could get paid to stay at home and do all we do! Haha and Brooks is seriously the most adorable little boy ever!

And yes... we totally should have a baby play date! I will be down there in a few weeks to watch my nephew for a couple of days :)

I'm just reading this now. And I totally agree with you on everything you wrote. I feel the exact same way. I feel so badly when I bring up these concerns to Luke & he, just like Matt, reminds me that I have one of the most important responsibilities that there is. Sending you a hug!
