Don't Wake The Kids

I'm a Supermom and so are you!

Lately, this whole working mother thing sucks. I’m not going to sugar coat it. It sucks. I’m drowning in the “I can’t do anything right” pool. At both work and home, I don’t feel I measure up.

In my mind, Mom’s always supposed to be there for her children. This week, they all got sick. I stayed home with Diva one day, but I couldn’t stay home with Jumpshot when he got sick, and poor Manchild just had to deal with it and go to daycare. It’s just cough and sniffles, but it kills me when I can’t be there to comfort them.

I know I’m not the only woman with this problem. I’m just not sure how to deal with it.

Someone out there, give me some perspective!

Don’t Wake the Kids is a blog featuring Sally and sometimes James, a husband and wife team, talking about their life – the good, the bad, and the ugly.  Together, they will put their life on display, imperfections and all, with the hope that you will find it uplifting, entertaining, and amusing.

About Sally

For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a mother. God blessed me with three wonderful children, who keep me going. My husband and I have been married for 12 years, and he’s my best friend.

I work full-time outside of the home and try to volunteer as much as I can at my children’s school. I love to bake and accidentally found out about cakepops, and I can’t stop making them. I love to scrapbook, when I find the time. I also like to crochet, but I’ve only made scarves. I use it to pass the time while waiting at the doctor’s office or practice or for meetings to start.

I try to have it all, and I hope my blog lends support to other moms who mess up, want to pull out their hair, but who wouldn’t want to trade their lives for anything – just like me.

People ask me how do I do it all. I am always flattered by this, and my answer is always the same – I don’t sleep. I only get a lot done after everyone falls asleep. James came up with the name of our blog Don’t Wake The Kids because of my nocturnal nature.
