A Moment of Honesty
Cried on the way home from work today. Not wanting to come home to 3 hungry, crying babies and 2 demanding girls...or the dirty house, piles of laundry and the contractor who's coming over to hear about what we need him to redo. Don't want to cook supper. Just want to go home and be alone...sleep, watch tv, flip through a non-thought-provoking magazine or swing outside in the fresh autumn air.

I can only imagine! It is so worth it, though we must give up ourselves for our little ones.
Oh Karen - I am SO sorry! I can't imagine how hard your nonstop life must be. You are doing a great job - don't ever forget it!!
Thanks for the encouragement...really in need of that right now.
I so wish we could be of more help to you. I can't even imagine how difficult this whole thing is for all of you. We'll try to give you a break in a couple of weeks! Hang on!
Karen
Can't say I feel your pain about having 5 little ones, a house to clean, food to fix...and all you want to do is drop...I can only imagine what that would be like. I know that I too want to come home and relax, and all I have to do is let the dog out. Hang in there and remember...help is only a phone call away. Not my phone, but I am sure there is someone out there who would be willing to help out...JUST KIDDING. Love you all, and I say that even after changing a poopy diaper (thanks Lincoln).

Thanks for being so honest - I know I feel the same way sometimes and it's hard to admit. And I only have the three girls! I just think that someday we'll have that peace & quiet and miss the craziness. They grow up sooo fast.
Thank you guys. So much. I am feeling better. It's taken all week...but I'm ready to go again. Laura - we are all looking forward to seeing you and dad. You won't recognize them - they're about triple their weight since you've seen them. Steve - you are always there for us. We love you too. From now on, I'll save all poopy diapers for you. And Cristan - you're right. As I just reread what I wrote on Wednesday my heart ached a little knowing that someday I will be reading this when my children are gone and I'll be crying wishing that I could have it all back - craziness & all.
