I need all the help I can get!

I had a few people complimenting me about all the fun stuffs I've been doing with my boys lately. And how good a mother I am.... well, I don't feel like a good mother if you ask me.

While I try to keep them busy and happy, I, sometimes, selfishly plan these fun things, to keep my sanity level to decent. I find that planning ahead what our day is going to be, helps ME a lot.
Of course it does make my babies happy, but let's be honest, it makes me equally happy. I have fun with them, we play together, we laugh when things go wrong, and just get excited when we really enjoy something.

As a mother, I need all the help I can get. If it means going on Pinterest from time to time, heck I'll go on Pinterest and lose sleep to find fun, easy things for us to do. But really all joking apart. I need help! Like any other mothers out there, I struggle.

Pictures on Facebook only show the fun we had, not the reason why this mamma of two is doing it. I do not struggle daily. Being a mom is not challenging every day but when it is, IT IS! I am bless to find time for myself during the day so I can plan ahead, relax, take a break, and do all the other stuffs that comes with being a mother, and a wife.

I was off of Pinterest for almost a year until my little monkeys started acting up. So I thought maybe we could do some of the things I pinned and give them a try just to see if it would help. It mostly does but kids are kids. They too, have their bad days. They are not immune to bad days. We all have them.

When I run out of pins to pin, I will find help somewhere else. We find help wherever we can, right?

ps: pics on Facebook are mostly for my family in Tahiti.

  2. such a good read Graz I needed this tonight. I have been going crazy this past month and have felt like the worst mom on the planet. reading this reminded me that I needed to go back to the drawing board and change some routines up and things we do around the house. You were inspired to write this for me. P.S. You are such an amazing Mother, I love having examples like you around to make me want to be better.
