I have to admit, when I saw this picture I cried just a little bit.
Today was a hard day. I’m behind in my edits (I’m talking client edits– not my 365) and my parenting sucked. The kids used to read this blog, but now they don’t really care about it so I can be a little more candid. Still, I’m hesitant to air all dirty laundry via the interwebs….
I’ll just say this: Raising kids is hard. So much harder than I ever imagined, in fact. I try, I stumble, I fail, I succeed, I coast, I flounder, I struggle, I win, I lose, I brag, I vent, I complain, I boast, I stumble, I stumble, I stumble, I fall flat on my face, I GET THE FUCK BACK UP. Wash, rinse, repeat.
Also, I kind of want to kidnap my nephew.
I know he loves me mom!! Although I do think I make raising kids harder!! Hehe good job mom! You are the first witness when Sam goes missing!!!!
All the failures you mention here are minor compared to the successes you and Tock have made of your family. No question.
