Don't Wake The Kids

And Other Rules for Motherhood

Where’s My Motivational Speaker?

on March 29, 2010

Have you noticed my recent absence? I haven’t forgotten about my readers. In fact, I’ve been harboring a lot of guilt about not posting. I miss it and you so much!

020Life has just been crazy is all. Work has been stressful, leaving me with little energy for anything else. Add to that homework with two children now, the constant barrage of food and drink requests, trying to squeeze in time with my husband – you know the usual juggling act.

In the last episode of The Middle, Frankie was inspired by a motivational coach. The gist is as a mother, we do so much. Value ourselves. There’s nothing we can’t accomplish.

I need to remember this more often. So now when I begin to feel like there’s no way I can possible do something, I shout to myself I’m a Mom! I can do anything! I’ve survived hours of labor. I’ve kissed every boo-boo. I can fix dinner, help with homework, construct a science fair display, and bake a tasty batch of cookies. I can do it!

Well, not exactly, but I’m working on it.
