I feel silly now having such a pitty party for myself yesterday. I know that things always look better in the morning and today I'm not feeling so bad. I've been reminded that my kids don't care the house is a mess, that I'm not a gourmet cook, I'm not as put together as some of the other moms in the carpool, know that we are poor, and that the toilets really need a good scrub down...okay, maybe they have noticed the fab ring around the toilet, but really, all they want is to be loved by me and their dad. They'll remember the fun we had at the park, the toy they go in their Micky D's meal, the time we spend hanging out, eating pizza, riding bikes, watching movies, camping and quading. There might be chaos around us, but as long as there is love around the chaos that's all that matters. I know there will be days I can't seem to get it together and feel discouraged, but I know as long as I'm doing my best and learning to be better each day it won't matter that that last load of laundry didn't get folded and I took my daily shower at 9pm. Being with my 3 sweet kids everyday is hard and challenging, but so worth it. Even though the baby is screaming right now and there is snot in my hair.
Gonna be a good day!

hey Kasey...would you mind calling me one night when you get a chance. I'm trying to figure out how to do labels and where it says yo babys for you I need to know how to change that on mine. I am a bit slow so calling will perhaps be the best :) 4350757-1904 or you can email me shelovesadam@gmail.com. Thanks woman!..and I was serious...wanna move next door to me?
your so cute! I think that all the time, what are they going to remember. I hope I'm raising good enough people that they see beauty in imperfection. I've never once received a card from my kids telling me they wish I stayed on top of the laundry better or that the bathroom was getting a little rank. It's always the fun family things they seem to remember and write about. Your doing great!
Quit saying your poor.. Money isn't everything.. Drew
