"Wow, how great to hear from all of the moms,
It is a huge transition isn't it? All the stages. And the identity changes that we as women go through with each one. I never had a problem until motherhood. And then, slowly, my stress reliever for a bad day appeared. And it was totally acceptable and legal! And then we need to put ourselves together again. Of course we do. Because our kids need us. I fear sometimes I might be too late, my kids are six and eight. Fortunately, I've always waited until after bedtime but I still feel the guilt. Because I'm too "tired" to do things with them during the time when I should be out and about scheduling play dates and activities. Can we all just make a promise to each other next month will be different? We have a couple of weeks with some time off to figure out the specifics. Maybe some of us need til next year. But surely by January all of us moms can be the moms we want to be by next year right? Fresh start? I'll start a new thread and keep us all accountable. Most of all me. Because more than anything in the world, I want my little ones to admire and respect their mom, and I think you all do too. Blessings, Raven"
So, I'm following up. I'll put a link up to the previous thread in another post where you can connect with all the moms and see we've moved! Please join us! Here's hoping for us to find great new plans for 2013, and learn from those moms who have passed big milestones, we need you....!!!
