Well, here it is. The first day of the new year… A fresh start, a blank slate, and boy am I excited! I changed the name of my blog today … It used to be laundry love … Um yea , what the heck was I thinking! I abhor laundry- it’s the most mind numbing task that NEVER ENDS….EVER! It’s like a battle where I always lose or end up flat out frustrated! I manage to put the clothes in, maybe remember to put them in the dryer…but when it comes to the actual folding ugh, it takes days to get this done…mostly because the girls keep throwing themselves in the pile of clothes…. And then when the miracle of actually folding the laundry occurs, the piles sit there forever. I mean the entire task of putting all those little pink and purple tiny socks in pairs used all the “boring chore” reserves of my brain and I couldn’t even fathom the idea of going from room to room opening up drawer after drawer and putting away those freshly laundered items!
So there you have it. I don’t like laundry and sometime I don’t love being a stay at home Mom but I love my girls more than anything and I am going to embrace this time with them…even though my four year old cried passionately this evening about how she didn’t want to eat the meatball for dinner ! And the fact that I picked up toys off the ground all day long only to walk to a different room to see that my two year old decided to decorate the walls with stickers and crayons… Yea this is my fabulous life but I will continue to make it my mission to raise confident, happy, smart, and strong girls.
