Somedays...


Somedays just waking up in the mornings, I feel anxiety.  Make the bottles for pre-school, get myself showered and dressed, fix my hair, and though I cut it short, it seems it just takes longer to style, wake the babies, get them dressed, wake the older girls, to start their day, because if I do not, past experience tells me that I will come home at 4 PM and find them still in pajamas.  Provide a list of "Must Do's", "Must Not Do's", and "May Do If Must Do's Are Finished."


Gather up blankets, baby doll, jackets, diaper bags, and the babies and suddenly realize I can't remember where to put my car keys the night before...ughhh!


But as I am frantically running around with my daughter holding tight to my hand with her own soft little hand, and my son bouncing along on my hip, I realize something... with one quick tug of my hair, he has my whole undivided attention, to suck my chin and say "I love you, mommy" in his own jumble of sounds, and I say "I love you too, and my daughter chimes in, "Love you so much!"


I realize that I wouldn't change the mornings for anything, or the days, or the nights.  The loneliness of doing this be myself, never lasts long.  And when I feel it coming on, I take two cheerios, and a bottle of formula, and our 'Where's My Teddy?" book, and all my children, to regroup, in my squishy bed, for some sweet memory making times!


Because of these beautiful creatures... We CAN do this!
