It seems I'm always apologizing for not blogging like I should, I would love to update you all on what's going on in our daily lives, keeping family & friends up to date with the latest pictures and stories, but right now it just isn't going to happen! I'm busier now than I have ever been and our kiddos are still in elementary school. After the Holidays were over, our house was a mess (which I despise), I felt like life was upside down and had no idea what day it was, Jody made me realize my most important role right now is to be a Mommy! When we decided I would stay at home this became my everyday "job" and I NEED to do this "job" as well as I could before my kiddos are gone. So many people look "down" on stay-at-home Mommies like we have no life ambition, absolutely NOT the case..what I've realized is a lot of those Mommies long to be at home and they actually feel guilty for not being there, so they put others down. I am NOT saying by any means working Mommies are bad, everyone has their own situation and are free to choose. We chose for me not to "work" or go to a 9-5 kinda job so that I could SEE our kiddos grow up and help SHAPE who they will one day become! Working at the YMCA, so many parents would drop off their kiddos at 7:30am and pick them up at 6pm...for us we traded expensive cars, vacations, clothes and eating out for quality time with our kiddos.
I don't really believe in New Years Resolutions, it seems like most are unachievable, but I am trying to be more honest and more conscious of those around me and the impact that I have on them and in turn how that looks to my own children. So, as I always say, I'll try to get back to blogging, but don't hold your breath ;)
