This week was yucky

Over the years I have heard many mothers make the comment, "I don't get to come home from work at the end of a terrible day, or relax over the weekend. I'm a stay-at-home mom, and my job never ends". And boy is that true.

First, let me say, that I love being a mom, and wouldn't trade this for anything in the world. But sometimes, there are just bad days.
For me, it was a bad week.

For one reason or another, things just didn't go very well, and by late afternoon I'm exhausted. But I don't get to 'go home and relax' at the end of the day. Because the evenings are even busier with making food for Lyla and feeding her, preparing dinner, cleaning up, dishes and bath time. By the time my head hits the pillow it's time to wake up again.

And Saturday comes and I should be excited, but the week hasn't gotten any better. And when all I want to do is take a nap/take a bath/pull my hair out/ball my eyes out, I realize my 5 minutes for that has passed and it's time to get back to work again.
So yes, this week has been yucky!!

Here's hoping next week is awesome :)
