Its All Apart of the Job.........
Six little ones, one husband, 15 loads of laundry, potty training to overcome, hair to comb, carpet to vacuum, floors to sweep and mop, toys EVERYWHERE, the never ending cycle of "whys" that I must answer, parks to visit, practices to attend, and as if I didn't have enough things to do, I happily added school (I graduate next May..woo hoo), becoming a published author, and helping my dad with the family business to my list of things I must accomplish..........The joys, pains, task, and responsibilities that come along with being the Chief Operational Officer of the Artis Household never end. It is one of the most intense, emotionally inspiring and physically draining jobs in the world, and I wouldn't trade one moment of it, ok, I'm lying a would trade a few of those potty training moments for more successful ones, but besides the unsuccessful potty moments, and Oh, I might trade out a few of those laundry moments for shopping moments, well, let's just say I would keep 99% of the moments, because being a wife and mother has given me some of the most memorable and rewarding times of my life.

I found you through SITS and I thought that I would stop in and say "hi!"
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that I am terribly impressed with all the things you've taken on - kudos to you!
I just met Superwoman, and she has a blog! You are to be commended for juggling it all. I hope I have half the fortitude. Thanks for stopping by by blog and leaving some love. I am following you on FB!
ReplyDeleteYou have a wonderful attitude. You will miss those days I know I do. I now work full time with teenagers and I just want to stop the world and enjoy it a little longer.
ReplyDeleteHi Thanks for stopping by! Congrats on graduating from school. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteLoved this post! So true!
ReplyDeleteI think you need to add CEO (Chief Engergizing Officer) to your list too because I am pretty sure you are a key ingredient in keeping everyone "up" and running. As for you wanting to be a published author..you will ,girl. You will. Your writing is exceptional. I am trying to do the same but I fight the same battle as you (lack of time). We will cheer each other on!
ReplyDeleteWow! Sounds like you are one busy mama! I'm not looking forward to potty training my toddler...ugh!
ReplyDeleteStopping by from SITS.
