Motherhood..........A True Confession!

Don't judge me!! (I do that just fine all by myself)

There are days where I throw my hands in the air and wonder...."what in the world was I thinking having children let alone 4 of them!" Don't get me wrong I love each and every thorn in my side, I mean child I have!!  But really shouldn't there be rules and criteria before one should  be allowed to reproduce?  After all when I was in the process of adopting Macey I had to jump through all sorts of hoops in order to prove that I was indeed a fit and capable mother!!   WHOOPS maybe someone slipped...........

No really just look at my eldest children they're going to need all sorts of therapy in order to become functioning, well adjusted individuals who will become an asset to their community!  Don't even worry that one of them is in Iraq protecting our country because I'm sure all those other soldiers moms had it goin-on!!) 

However I am sure if they were asked just the right questions they would let you know that I am all sorts of crazy and completely delusional!!  They would tell you that my parenting skills are nothing to be desired that I only cook meals out of a box!!  Then there are those things I never get done or get done but just aren't done right! I'm pretty sure Carley and Macey one day will pipe right up and agree with their older siblings once they get a little older and figure it out!

But sometimes being a mother and all that comes with it is not easy nor are many of the things you do popular!! But hey I'm not here to be there best friend or win a popularity contest!! All I can say is I try and hold true to my beliefs, morals, values and do what I feel is right and hopefully will be the best interest of my family! I can also tell you that the position of motherhood becomes far more difficult, a lot less enjoyable, will produce feelings of inadequacy and sadness if your children convince their father that you are indeed a raving, delusional crazy person...  But mom's trust me when I say no matter what pray hard, hold your heads up high, stand your ground and hold-on the storm will inevitably pass and hopefully with very little damage!!!
