Motherhood: Superwoman?


Does motherhood automatically make you feel like SUPERHERO?
The woman who can anything and everything?
Here's the reality! While we feel like we have to, we don't! Some days we can't do or handle it all!

HELP!!!!

At times, it feels over whelming! There was a time when I looked at myself and said "I didn't ask for the cape! And I didn't ask to look at like I was some superhero with magical powers to do all these things! I need help but I don't know who to turn to!". And your not alone.... Not everyone can handle it all and continue to be sane! There are some strong women I know, that have break downs sometimes... And I NEVER thought I'd ever hear them say "I lose it sometimes too" but its all on HOW you handle the break down. Even though we juggle multiple things, just know there is someone on the side lines waiting to help juggle them all! And always ready to pick up the fallen things and throw them back in the act! And that is the key! You have to let God be there to guide and show you the way, and you have to form an amazing support group/friends, that you can count on for that physical support. You all hold each other up with encouragement and help them through it all. I don't think I would have made it through my first year as a FULL TIME working mom. I worked 6 days a week and still ran (barely) my household, and then my first year as a stay at home mom of 2 kids! But with God, friends & my husband to help me I wouldn't have made through it all.
To put a cute ending on this post here is a list of all the things us moms do with a little laughter to it!
