This pictures sums up my day and night.  Poor Hannah, she means well but has no boundaries.  But I wouldn't trade her help, I would say anything but someone that wipes their own butt would be nice.  The picture just reminded me of what a difficult job stay-at- home moms have it with young children.  Hats off to those moms that pack up 3+ kids and go buy anything, let alone soccer games,groceries, etc.


Although this is a show of recognition to all moms, it's also a call out to dads who see all those roles as the mom's responsibility.  I'm not judging believe me, I still argue with my wife about roles daily.  Lately I've been able to see things from her perspective more and realized I did and still do put most things dealing with the kids on her.  It's a struggle for me to open my mind to these changes because as we all are, I'm a product of nurture.  My mom did it all as far as running the family, dad made the money and was always there.  Kinda the same role I've been playing, in a way.


This starting off for a whole different topic but I'll get there later.. Now I remember.

Talking about Hannah's heart.  She loves him so much.  She's our bottle giver in the car, our clown to keep him happy, and our sweet lyricists.  But in there also is this ugly, egotistic pulse, and we are feel its beat constantly.  I'm confronted with this more now than when I was working daily and I fail 80% of the time.  What a difference it would make if we surrendered ourselves daily to our children.  Maybe everyone does practice this and I'm just behind.  I know we make sacrifices beyond measure, but let's not see just the financial sacrifices but the only thing with true value, time.  There aren't many times in you life when you have 3 people, even if they're small. that love the crap out of you and want nothing but to play with you...I'll have to read this in the morning ..
