I Did All That?

Superwoman isn't the one in the high heels looking awesome while she does her house chores.
That's just...I don't know, Incurably Cheerful Woman or something.
No...this is Superwoman:
"I did all that?"


Superwoman is the one who does it all without getting angry even though she's so tired it's painful to keep her eyes open. Plus, she's on her period and dealing with a cold that is making her voice all crazy.
Yet somehow (how?!), she managed to clean the entire house, wash the dishes, do the laundry, rearrange furniture, organize cupboards, and make a treat for some guests coming tonight.
Oh yeah, and clean up poopy Mr. Ender and nurse a teething baby. That counts for a lot.


I don't expect much sleep tonight, but tomorrow, after my visiting teachers come, after I feed everybody, after after after...


...maybe someday I'll get a nap...

  2. Okay I really like that you comment on my posts, it makes me feel like the time I put into pays off for someone. So I am going to try to return the favor... Just yesterday I was talking with my friend about not wearing anything but pjs or sweats because when we do we get spitup on and yadda yadda. I have to realize that just caring for a child makes you pretty amazing but then getting other things done around the house yes super woman is a title we can claim!

  3. I'm just trying to hold on until my kids are in school. Then, if I really really want to, I can send them to school and then get back in to bed. That is the reward for being a mommy.
