Hello everyone.....I am a mom, been one for about 17 years now. It has certainly been an interesting ride. I have gone from wanting to change my "mom" name to absolutely anything else, to kids having to call me by my first name to catch my attention, to finally - where did my kids go?
Like any other family, time certainly has taken its toll on us. What I have learnt through all this is - your time is very important. Don't let the kids, husbands and the 1001 mundane daily tasks take over your life. Your life should be defined by just who you are, and your journey is yours alone. Never let your family's goals/aspirations over shadow yours. There will of course be time when someone will have to take the back seat for the greater good, that is ....as long as it is not consistently you.
