The last couple weeks I don't think I would even begin to say that, even the last couple of days. I've been slacking I know I have. Sometimes life gets hard and mom life is even harder. I pray, more like plead to have more patience. Add that to moving twice in two months, trying to get back on a somewhat normal baby schedule, all while keeping up the whole "super mom" title. I will be the first to tell you that I've been stressed, short tempered, overwhelmed, and most nights go to bed completely drained.
But guys, today I did it.
It all started out with Harper sleeping in till 8:00. She woke up SO happy I couldn't help but be happy too. Her smile is contagious and that smile is what keeps me going most days. I planned dinner meals for the next week, offered to feed the missionaries, wrote down my grocery list and carefully budgeted what we could afford. I did the laundry, washed the dishes. I organized Harper's clothes (something I've been wanting to do for weeks) I got more Christmas shopping done, grocery shopping done. I made dinner from scratch!!! And learned a new recipe, but the best part is... Kyler LOVED it! I played with my sweet baby and made her giggle and laugh and then put her to bed without a single problem.
Today I did it. Today I was a better wife and mom and I can't help but thank my Heavenly Father for helping me, blessing me, and allowing me to be a mother and wife.
