There's this list. You know: graduate high school, go to college, get a career, get married, have a family, then... who knows what then. Whatever "then" entails, I still needed to get it done yesterday. Can't I just finish college already since I started it? When will I get a career? A good one to support my family with, to build my dream house with, and tour the world on. Do I have to enter a secret code? And why didn't I enter that code yesterday?
Life just feels rushed. We have a plan in place, doesn't that mean it can happen already? Can't I graduate from school yet? Can't Jack finish his school yet? Am I retired yet? Is it time to die yet? I feel like everyday is slipping through my fingers, I just can't catch it fast enough. Where is all my time?
My sweet princess just keeps growing, no matter how much I try to make her shrink again. How is she going to see her mommy when she turns one? Where are all my successes that I can show her? All the things I can't buy for her, all the pictures that I'm too slow to catch?
Am I an awful mom because I'm so dang busy? I can only pray that she won't notice all my short comings.
Ha ha ha, sleep. You are cute!! Yup, being a grown up sucks. Also, you are a GREAT mom! Statistically, children of parents who have college degrees are significantly more likely to obtain college degrees themselves, so you are doing her a favor! If it isn't hard, it isn't worth doing!!
