Being Selfless
Sometimes I so do not succeed in being selfless. Having a kid has really taught me about this word. But honestly there are times that I still want to be selfish-I want to sleep in, I don't want to change diapers for a day, I want to veg on the couch all day or take a nap for as long as I want. But with a little one running around, that makes it hard to do. This weekend I struggled a lot with not wanting to do something for myself. Jeff worked almost all weekend (which was great-he is an amazing man and I am so thankful for the work he does and for supporting our family), so that means I had little man all weekend. So on top of that and cleaning the house and just trying to keep up, I didn't do much for me. I didn't even have time to read for 15 minutes, I was too worn out. I think Saturday night was the worst, I just wanted to throw a pity party for myself. Sometimes it's just hard to find the balance, make time for you. I wouldn't change being a mom for the world, I just wish I could figure out the balance-I think you try to figure out the balance for the rest of your life though! Any thoughts moms out there?
