I am three weeks into the new job and loving it. But I will not lie when I tell you that learning to balance the time I want to put in too the three most important aspects of my life right now Jack, John, and work is hard. We are settling in though and I know each day will get easier to manage. Thank goodness I love all three of those aspects so that makes it a heck of a lot easier. I saw This Article this morning and had to post it. I have a list of blog posts I want to write (and am determined to get too) but I have been straight out from 5:30AM to 10:30 PM every single day. It is funny because I realized I definitely have been getting asked these questions a lot lately. I guess it is because we are in a new area, meeting new people, and people are getting to know our family. Same with business opportunities, I take the questions with a grain of salt. I answer them in my head the same way they are answered in this article, but what comes out of my mouth is a smile and of my bag a picture of my family.
As I have said in posts about being a working mom before, it is not easy. But regardless of working or stay at home there is no perfect situation. You just need to determine what is perfect for you. Lately my parenting skills I feel are being tested to the limit. I have been exhausted lately, and find my patience being tested and the way I react to the littlest things being tight lipped or whiny myself to John and sometimes Jack. It makes me feel horrible and I have been forcing myself to stop and think before letting anything out of my mouth. I read this quote the other day and I am determined to keep it in a place where I can always see it and be reminded because it is so important "Your children will become who you are, so be who you want them to be".
Happy Thursday Peeps and enjoy the articleWhat Not To Say To A Working Mom
