Hi friends,
I was debating whether to write this post or not. It has been staying in my drafts for some time now. I am not a super mom or a super wife. My home is a mess most of the days! I don't play everyday. I don't do things perfectly and I don't lead a perfect life. I use cheap supplies and will continue using them because I believe learning doesn't have to cost much . This is probably not the perfect blog! I work 6 days a week and I wake up at 6 am everyday and sleep at 1 am (I nap for an hour). I try to feed my family home-made food because I know that I cook tasty foods better and healthier than those fast foods ( Yes, I have learnt this thing FINALLY). Yes, my kids get to watch TV when I have to clean or cook and yes, sometimes their conversations seem too much for me. But guess what? They do love me and think I am perfect. My husband thinks I am doing a great job raising them and running our house. So, I choose to focus on the positives!
However this decision wasn't an easy one, I struggled with guilt first. I struggled with competing the perfect Pinterest where everything is glowing and shining, I struggled with those who seem to be able to get it all under control. I struggled with my metal demons but today, I don't struggle anymore! I choose not to. My kids are happy, they trust me and tell me all their day details, we laugh and joke and dance. We spend a movie night every week together having popcorn in our hands and laughing hysterically and to me, THAT IS ALL WHAT MATTERS!
I apologize if this blog disappointed you at any point, I apologize I don't post as much as expected, I apologize my photos are never perfect but this is my trial and error journey around which this blog was created.
Thank you for listening!
