Thank you for...One of your readers checking in! :)<br /><br />Thank you for such an honest post. I struggle with these same issues on a daily basis...and it's easy to beat oneself up over.

What would be so great is if your mom or sister or someone from church or some Amish teenager would come and HELP YOU. Another thing is you get post partum depression every time. It was bad after Evan. Raising kids is a really hard job. In the days when whole families lived like you are the extended family was close by and other family did drop in and wash dishes and laundry etc... man I wish we were closer. I'd pitch in and kick your laundry's b*tt just havin 3 in diapers...lawdy have mercy, shoot get Pioneer woman to come over she loves little people. SOMEBODY CoME HELp KATie!!!!

Just watch.<br /><br />Now I lay me down to sleep,<br />I pray my sanity to keep.<br />For if some peace I do not find,<br />I'm pretty sure I'll lose my mind.<br /><br />I pray I find a little quiet,<br />Far from the daily family riot.<br />May I lie back and not have to think<br />About what they're stuffing down the sink,<br /><br />Or who they're with, or where they're at<br />And what they're doing to the cat.<br />I pray for time all to myself<br />(did something just fall off a shelf?)<br /><br />To cuddle in my nice, soft bed<br />(Oh no, another goldfish--dead!)<br />Some silent moments for goodness sake<br />(Did I just hear a window break?)<br /><br />And that I need not cook or clean<br />(well heck, I've got the right to dream)<br />Yes now I lay me down to sleep,<br />I pray my wits about me keep,<br />But as I look around I know,<br />I must have lost them long ago!Clayvesselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07796290313996857351noreply@blogger.com
