I am tired.
I feel like I have a big cry that is ready to erupt at any moment.
I am sick of listening to my two year old whine.
I am beyond sick of trying to potty train that two year old.
I am so done with cleaning up the house Every. Single. Day.
Do I really have another load of laundry waiting for me? Already!?
I am so done with my husband being gone at night.
I am really burned out.
There, I said it.
Let's hope tomorrow I feel better.

thanks for being honest!
some days i feel just like this!
in fact, today i started crying in line at the post office because owen was being so awful.
then when we finally got in the car after 45 minutes in line, i ignored his request for water.
i'm so mean! but i had had it too!
keep your head up!!
wishing for a better day tomorrow too!!
I love that you are honest. It makes me know that I am not the only one out there feeling the same way. Just hang in there. I have these days all the time, and it's totally OK to cry.
If you need a break and want me to pick up L, I'm sure my whining 3 year old would love to have a playdate :) Seriously, I mean it. We'd love to have her over to play.
Thank heavens I am not the only one who has days like this! No one is perfect. Kids can be obnoxious and stubborn, but we love them anyway cause they are ours.
It doesn't mean you can't want a break from it sometimes. We all do.
Last week Beau put his hand in his poo. A vein popped in my head that day.
I think I could just copy and paste this onto my blog a lot of days. Having kids is the hardest thing ever, and it's so frustrating when you are putting all you have into it and trying to be the best mom you can, and not getting the results you want. You are such a good mom. You have real emotions just like the rest of us. I loved your post.
oh sister, if you only knew how many of those days I have. Motherhood can really be a thankless job at times. And don't feel bad, I know you love being a mom and love your kids to death. However there are definitely days where you think you might have chosen the wrong profession. :)
Oh Lizzy, seriously I think about you mothers all the time and what a tireless job you have. I know you wouldn't trade it for the world but it's so okay to feel the way you are.
Take a big breath!
I think I know where your problem is, POTTY TRAINING! That is on my top 10 of hardest things I have had to do. Come to think of it a lot of those top 10 items have to do with children! Oh the joys of motherhood, but you wouldn't trade it for the world.
You are SO not alone!! :)
Loved this post Liz, everything was so true and I feel the exact same way. I usually need a time out more than Ainsley does on some days! And thanks for posting on my blog, I love readers!
Oh how I can relate to soo many of the things you have put on your list. Taedon is going thru this intense separation anxiety and it is so draining. I honestly can't even leave the room for a minute w/out him freaking out. It is so draining! Know this... we momma's feel for you and totally understand!
I AM SO GLAD YOU POSTED THIS! I have been feeling SO overwhelmed lately with Sophia. it is nice to hear that i'm not alone, and it sounds like a lot of people needed to hear it too!
love you!
let's get together this week.
