i am not miserable

i got wind of an aquaintances blog it is her experience as a stay at home mom. i have never read anything so miserable in my life. there is not one ounce of love felt. just despair and frustration. it really scares me, how is it effecting the kids? her marriage? i firmly beleive that if mama ain't happy no one is happy. i know that being a parent is tough but i find joy in it. i still feel like it is the best thing i have ever done. it's not all easy - i know but she sounds suicidal!



do you know that i love my mom? i think she is the best mom ever and so does my husband. she surprised us today with a visit. which we never mind b/c it means she is here to help with the kids and cook. she is also the best cook. she will stay the next few days which will leave us sometime to rest. she is a saint.



tomorrow is volunteer day at work. we spend one day a year as a company and volunteer our time. it is usually super fun except for when we have to scrape lead paint off old schools. very rewarding and then they throw a party for us at the end of the day. the only problem is that it lands on a friday this year so it cuts into the 1/2 day fridays that makes this company stand out from the others. i have to hope the tour bus is not running late so i can make it back to get the car, pick up m love and make it to gymnastics.
