When I was 28, I had my first child, and two young step-sons. I remember it being hard, but my young body could hold out!!! I could stay up for days, and give that EverReady Bunny a run for his batteries!! Not anymore, not even close!!!
My grandsons, Adrian and Finn are here for the Memorial Holiday. They are four and one years of age, and their grandparents are "swallowing" Advil by the handfuls.
Don't get me wrong, I love "um" to pieces, I just cant pick up the pieces!!!anymore.
Hart told me the other day, "Mom you raised five kids!!!" "How can two little kids wear you out?"
BECAUSE...I raised five kids.......I'm SPENT!!!
We have had a great few days, stepping all over each other, yelling and loving!!
Families are so complicated, and wonderful, and HARD!!!
It has been a long time since I was 28 and a new mom. You never forget how to "mother", you are just glad it is somebody else's turn!!!
