Mothers Morning

Its okay world of mothers, I feel your pain of the morning wake up.  Most mornings we wake up to the screaming and fighting of siblings, the crash of another broken bowl.  The lucky ones get the sweet wake up, the tiny fingers pulling up your eye lids "wakey wakey mommy".

If you have people under 3 foot in your house, that for some odd reason refer to you as mother, mommy, mom, momma you will have experienced the earth shattering morning jolt.

We all sigh, roll out of bed and head to relieve the call of nature, splash some water on our face, straighten our hair just a bit, open the door and walk out of the only alone time we will get for the day. Dodge a ball that wizzes by your head, and start taking breakfast orders.

Our days are filled with screams, cries, abundance of laughter, plenty of hugs, and many kisses.  We take a mental beating, and we wish we could have adult convos, but when asked we wear the Stay at home mother badge proudly.  I just wanted to give a shout out to all the mothers out there who work their butts off taking care of kids, and keeping house.  Even more props to the working moms who do our job plus working for the "MAN"! I raise my cup of coffee to you all!

grass is greener?

A ladder some binoculars we have all done it, peeked over the other side of that proverbial fence.
Trying to peer at the one we so desperately think is the right one.

We fight this internal battle with ourselves, guns blazing, swords drawn. Only hoping, wishing, dreaming for that one touch or feel from the other side of that fence, but what is on the other side of that fence?

Is it a replacement? Is it an idea? Is it really what we want? We often as humans sit and wonder is it better on the other side of the fence? Do we cross it? More often then not, we are dreamers.  Our imaginations are amazingly strong when we open our minds and let them go.

Try this climb back down your ladder put away your binoculars, look around at what you have and dream about what you already own, what is in your life, let yourself go in your already made world, your predetermined life you have already planned for yourself.  You will find faults on the other side of the fence, you find holes, glitches, blemishes in your imaginational life you have created on the other side. Only to realize that you have the greener side of the fence.
