priceless


hi all! okay, so i could be considered the worlds crankiest mom and wife right now. really, someone please give me that award, because i sooooo deserve it. i just do not do well with little sleep. i am so one of those people who could still sleep till 1:00 in the afternoon. even if i went to bed at 8:00 the night before. i love sleep. love it, love it, love it. i can only hope that when i make it to heaven, that god has sleep planned in there for me...uninterrupted sleep please. so, if you haven't been able to tell already, i didn't get much sleep last night...ummmm, or the last 3 1/2 years of my life. i'm just over it. i want to say to my kids "grow up already"...feed yourself, go potty by yourself, fill your drink up by yourself, no, those shadows aren't monsters, but mommy is about to be one if you don't go to freakin sleep!!! my husband has also been saying that i must not be hearing the kids after 4 in the morning, because he is getting up with them...he lays there and waits to see if i hear them, and when i don't, he gets up. umm, good, because i'm NOT getting up. i told him that i'm turning male, and doing the husband thing...where, secretly i do hear them, and i just lay there, and wait for him to get up to tend to their wonderful needs :) i'm so mean. but seriously, he is a great husband for even doing that...i know some moms who have to get up all night with the kids and their hubbys don't help. i'm sorry, but i need sleep just as much as my husband does! stay-at-home-mom life is not just about eating bon-bons and laying around on the couch all day. amen? we work just as hard as those men! okay, so i'm done ranting...i just need sleep...i think i'll post that in every post until it happens :) are you getting sick of hearing me complain about it yet?
i did have a great morning at MOPS (mothers of preschoolers) today. it's just so nice to go and have a couple hours without your children, have some great food, and have some great conversation with moms who are in the same boat as you. there's nothing like hearing someone else say "oh yah, i was up at 2 in the morning as well!" because you know that when you're up in the middle of the night, you feel like you are the only one in the world up right now. so it's just nice knowing that there are others who are suffering with you :) i LOVE my MOPS group...there are so many fabulous ladies...if you don't have a MOPS group, and you are a stay-at-home mama, you should look them up on the internet, and find one...now! it's a great support system!
well, this card is another creation from my make-n-take the other night...i got a new stamp set today...fun and fast notes??? i think that's the name...anyways, can't wait to create something with it...i've got to run. the kids are being awfully quiet right now. that can't be a good thing. have a great day!
