Long time, No write!!!

Okay so it has been a while but I have my excuses. I haven't been feeling too well lately so I haven't done more than laying on the couch. I am now in week 11 of the pregnancy and ready for week 13 to get here.

Shannon started his new job and he says that he is loving it but me on the other hand, that is a different story. He is gone a lot and when he is home he is upstairs working. I am having a tough time dealing with the kids and housework and trying to keep up on work. Shannon keeps telling me to quite work but we really need the little bit on money we do receive from me working. Plus it makes me feel like I am doing a little something to contribute to the household bills. I will quite in June anyway when we go to Greenville but would like to stay through then.

That brings me to the point of what I actually do around the house. As a stay at home mom, I do contribute just not financially. I would love to go out and get my dream job but it is just not feasible with three children under the age of 5 (as of October). I have to keep reminding myself that I am a vaulable resource to our house. Sometimes it is hard to do especially when I don't feel like getting off the couch. Are there any more of you out there who feel this way? If so it would be nice to know that I am not alone.

Seriously, I so remember those days!!! You know you are an irreplaceable resource to your family and your children. You will never regret spending your time fulfilling the greatest calling in life...being a mommy. There will be time later for a job/career that you will undoubtedly excel in!! You should feel so proud of yourself for being there for your children! Don't forget to give yourself time for rest and relaxation! Everyone deserves that! Especially mommies, and especially pregnant mommies. Let us not forget how much energy babies in the womb sap from their mothers. LOL. Take care, K
