Confession of a Stay-at-Home-Mom

I have been a stay-at-home-mom now for five years. I can hardly beleive it! Next year all of my babies will be going off to school. It is sad, but true! So here is what I have done or not done over the years [and this is what I can remember}:

There have been days that we have all stayed in our pjs.

There have been days that I have felt lost in all of the chaos of having two little boys.

I have felt like I lost myself in staying at home.

I have wanted to go back to work, but I don't know how mom's who work get it all done.

I have resented staying-at-home.

I had days where I loved staying at home and cherished every momment.

There are days that I didn't get a shower nor did the boys.

There were days that we layed on the couch and watched TV.

There are were days all we did were play outside.

There were days all we did was play in the toy room.

There were day we colored, and made crafts.

There were days the house didn't get clean.

There are days that I miss those times.

There are days that I wish I had treasured more.

The time with my boys have flown by so fast. I love them so much. They are the biggest blessings! Treasure the time you have because life is but a vapor.
"How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone." James 4:14
