She is absolutely adorable.... So adorable... But occasionally she has days where she looks super sweet but doesn't act super sweet ( I guess we all have those days). Yesterday was that day...I didn't have to go in to work and I just did things for work at home. Wednesdays
are our fun days and I try to jam pack it full of fun activities.
We went with cousin, Bracken, and my sister, Alicia, swimming at Sports Academy, we went out to lunch, we went shopping, we played... (We literally didn't even plan for them to wear the same jackets)
You would think that would be so fun, right? Well, Bosty was grumpy she pulled my hair a lot, she pulled Brackens hair, she pulled Alicia's (she managed to smile while doing this) she threw a fit when it was time to leave Sports Academy, she destroyed the house every time I turned around, she was literally driving me nuts. Me being drove nuts resulted in me not being the best mom. I had a small amount of patience and energy... I literally wanted to stab my eyeballs out. I hope I am not the only mom guilty of occasionally being drove nuts. When she went to bed last night I was worn right out.
I went to bed feeling like this type of mom:
Every night before Boston falls asleep when she is is bed we talk about what we did that day. I usually say what we did and she repeats it if she liked it and if she didn't like it she just says "no" or doesn't repeat. Last night while we were doing this she repeated it all and smiled and gave me a big hug. I pulled myself out of the situation and realized that even though Boston is a little human she is still a human and some days, despite my best effort, she isn't going to love every thing about the day and even more so every single thing about me. I'm a human, too, and I'm not always going to being the most fun, happy, patient, loving person/mom out there.
I'm okay with not being the best mom, the most fun, the one whose baby is perfect. Their are probably a million of moms out there yesterday who did a lot better at being a mom than I did but their are also probably some who did worse...days like yesterday I'm pretty content with being the worlds Okayest mom.
