Think before you say something negative about someone else !!!!!!
I am so proud to be a stay at home mom :) I may not get paid money for my job but I am okay with that because I get paid with unconditional love 💜💜💜 my children are my everything. I am their teacher,best friend,nurse,and most importantly their mother. I do not take being a stay at home mom for granted because I know that not everyone is able to do this!!!! I have been talked about for awhile now that I need to get a job instead of sitting at home doing nothing while my husband works. I wish for that person or people how not only say this about me but other moms like me to spend one day in our shoes. I am about to educate you 😉 I take care of two children everyday , I clean my house everyday , I wash clothes everyday, I take the kids to their appointments , I do all the errands like pay the light bill go grocery shopping , I cook dinner every night , I clean up dinner every night , I get the kids their baths , I get bottles ready for Willow , I put Ethan to bed then Willow , I make sure Adams work clothes are laid out for work the next morning. When I lay down at mostly every night around 10 or 11 I do not fall asleep till 12 or 1 Adams alarm clocks go off at 3:00am so I am wide awake to make sure he does not over sleep and gets up to head to work well it's hard for me to go back to sleep because most of the time the alarm clocks wake Willow up or she is up ready for her bottle so I around 6 I get to lay back down and by 7 or sometimes 8 Ethan is up and so is Willow so I am up for the day and my route starts all over again same thing everyday. I do not get out but once or twice in a blue moon . I always have my kids with me which does not bother me I love having them with me !!! I also and very great full how hard my husband works as well and I let him know how bless we are to have such a hard working man in our life :) he lets me know how much he appreciates all that I do as well . The sad part is when someone who does not know how mentally and physically exhausting being a stay at home mom can be and the say all you do is sit at home and do nothing while you husband bust his but all day they have no clue how bad that knocks me down :( I am depressed about 90% of the time because I don't think I do enough to justify how hard my husband works even when he tells me how proud he is of me and appreciates everything that I do It still kills me inside but pull it together because I don't want my kids to see me at my weak point . Unless you have been in my shoes you will not understand the meaning of what I do day to day . Your words do affect people whether you realize it or not !!! I know what I do is amazing but when you constantly hear what you do is nothing in some peoples eyes you get weak and it hurts but you know how we keep going :) because I look into my children's eyes and know what I am doing is right and love that surrounds our home is stronger than any negativity 💜 I am a proud stay at home mom/wife 💜
I share this to support other mothers like me and to bring notice to the ones who say we do nothing I know it may not matter to most people but to some I know it does :) I know how it feels to be bashed for being a stay at home mom !!! This story is just a short piece of it there's so much more that goes on so think about what you're about to say to or about a stay-at-home mom and I'm not saying all stay at home moms are like this but this is me and know that I don't do nothing , know that I am not lazy , know that I am human , know that my children love me , know that my husband loves me and is very thankful for everything that I do , know that me being a stay at home mom works for us and most importantly know that my life is none of your business 👌🏻 I could say so much more but I think you get the idea plus I don't have to clarify anything to anyone but I chose to clear up a few things and I hope this helps others like me and dealing with this issue just know your awesome and your love ones appreciate you also keep up the good work !!!!
