Are You There Mommy? It's Me !!!

I now know why they say a mother's day never ends...it's because no matter how hard you try to hide from your kids, they ALWAYS find you. My Gracie and Ava (to some extent) has proven this to me. It doesn't matter if daddy is home from work, once they're done playing, they want mommy to do all the real work. Like giving baths, making bottles, putting them to bed, and all that fun. When you think you've escaped for ten minutes to take a bath and the door locked, one comes pounding on the door! I think I hear the word "mommy" every five minutes in my house and in the car, I think it's more like every minute! So the cycle goes...I escape, they find me, I want to be alone and become agitated, they start crying because they want me, then I feel bad cause they're crying, and so I give in. You gotta love the love they have for you.

yes! that's how it is. And nothing you ever eat in their sight is ever truly yours. Then one day, guess what, everythings quiet, you got more time then you know what to do with. At first, it's all honky dorie, but then your heart tells you, " it's too quiet." It's all good though. I've always thought my boys would come pounding down my door because of one reason or another. How different it is. My advice, remember it all....it soothes you in the quiet.

love you guys......aunty apes!
