Ready to give up some days...

[crafty]

For me this it the BEST and WORST job I ever had haha. I love it ...Like today we went for an hour long walk, then planted flowers and veggies, then we fed the chickens...we spent 2 hours outside this AM we had a great lunch and a quiet nap time from 12h30 to 2h45pm then we had a pic nic for pm snack. We are now back inside where everyone is playing nicely together and I am having a tea. My kids are with me all day. I think they most have told be 10 times ''I LOVE YOU'' I got lots of hugs and we just had a great and fun day.

Then there are days where I pick up poop and pee everywhere, tantrums and defiance, spills, fighting over toys, stuck indoors, screaming and, illness and that is just in ONE day. How can you not second guess the decision you have made to quit a well paying job with benefits with breaks and payed lunch hour ???

There is a little bit of NUTTS in us I think but count your bad versus the good and your will see there is lots of good reasons why we do what we do. For me, what I love about this is that I MATTER... EVERYDAY I MATTER, WHAT I DO MATTERS TO MY KIDS AND THE OTHER FAMILIES. Even if you can't see it everyday we are essential.
