Ahhh…. boy, I’m so tired and so frustrated.  You ever just feel like the worst mom ever!?  I try so hard to be perfectly patient and loving with my children, perfectly attentive to them, making sure they are loved and cherished like they deserve.   But sometimes I just get in a rut where I am so short tempered.  Today, Anna has been fussy and wanting to be held while I’m trying to do other things, and I just feel awful putting her down.  But yet, I feel awful not keeping the house up or getting my work done for the business.  It’s such an internal struggle… I feel guilty either way and I just get frustrated at her as I result.  To top it off, my son is exhausted from going to camp this week and thus is not very cooperative come the evening hours.  We’re also still struggling with getting him fully potty trained, and I’m just so frustrated with that whole thing.  What I am doing wrong!??  As much as I try not to, I end up convincing myself that I was just never made for motherhood and I’m horrible at it.  Admittedly, I’ve never really been a “kid-person”.  I never ooggoogled over babies or was much of a babysitter in my younger days.  I’m never one to ask to hold someone else baby or offer to watch people’s kids.  I’m just feeling out of sorts, and it sure doesn’t help it when my kids are upset whether it be about going pooh in the potty or not being nursed even after she just ate!Does anyone else feel like the worst mom ever?  It’s such a lie us women tell ourselves, I know.  Nevertheless, we sit there and tell ourselves, “gee… could I be any worse at this?”  Or “why can’t I just go this?  Everyone can.”  Well, I hope if you are reading this and can agree that you find comfort in the fact that someone else feels the same way, and someone else is praying for you.  If you have any thoughts, feel free to post a comment or use my new contact me form if you just want to share with me privately!God love you!
