Dear Kate,
I can relate to what you’re going through. I have 2 young kids age 9 & 5. You sound like you’ve been very busy being mom and you’re tired. What you need is a little break. Can you find some way to just take short walks by yourself to clear your head and breath in some fresh air? Just this simple thing can improve things tremendously. Once you have a breather for yourself, you’ll have a breather for your kids. Our energy affects people around us and vice versa. You might not have to worry about your daughter’s tantrums. When mommy is calm, everything calms down. Yes, you have that power. Now, everything costs money. Baby sitter costs money. But it can save more than it costs. A little investment in time for yourself is what needed here. I’ve been there in your shoes. My love and hugs to you. Wish you’ll find some time to just be Kate.
Though I run this site, it is not mine. It's ours. It's not about me. It's about us. Your stories and your wisdom are just as meaningful as mine.
