Somethings// all things considered: Parent life

I think that casually there are things that sometimes don't make sense. i am a stay at home parent and i love it. (its not a job ) A lot of people I have read have the misconception of what a STAHM really does,(we do a lot). I think at one point i have even heard comments like;oh its these women that are too lazy to work, or they don't have a life ..really?? . i boggles my mind that people can be so naive as to what a stay at home mom is..... The assumption is , we stay at home watch TV, and eat all day..(not really, if you ask me) it's my belief that being at home with the kids is a privilege , not a luxury and at times a little tough. Kids are always up to something new and it's always a different day, nothing ever is a routine .. Why? because when (in my experience) i have made a schedule of , okay  today will be like this , wake up brush our teeth , eat breakfast, read, pray , clean up and so on it's a pain because when it doesn't go as planned (and a lot of other things),it can get stressful and kids will never be up for being stressed out all they want is to play. In the same way , I feel like it's life unexpected as I watch them grow up, I tell myself Ill have all the time in the world to work... Of course , hands down to the women that are  mom and dad, it's hard work (doing it all)... I think that maybe it's my experience of what I have seen that has shaped the way I see being a stay at home mom. Kids are a joy , funny, and they come up with the silliest things, and their life becomes a book, because when you look back and they are grown up, there is always a story to tell.
I am beyond grateful to be home with my kids , i appreciate all that they are too me... As for now I am off because they just woke up ....

Good Tuesday
