And an amazing friend. You let me text you on and on tonight about my crap and never once mentioned this and now I'm reading it AFTER the fact. That low spot you are in sucks, been there for different reasons but not that different. I'm throwing you the ladder to climb up as slow as you need to. Love you girl:)Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10840723773165152629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26604821.post-14619942982792419262010-05-01T19:20:04.789-04:002010-05-01T19:20:04.789-04:00That was a brave post...the real kind that are har...That was a brave post...the real kind that are hard to type but that is your life and you cannot be alone in your feelings/situation. I AM going to tell you though that you are a good mom! :-) You put your kids first. They know you love them. You stopped working to stay home with them. I could go on and on.<br /><br />I hate that you are feeling low right now. I have struggled lately myself. I think, as women, we tend to take on too much of the household responsibilities and eventually just get overwhelmed. <br /><br />Maybe if you approach Chris when he isn't angry and talk to him about how this made you feel and maybe make a pact to discuss issues with the kids when they aren't around? I dont' know...I am not to the parenting thing yet. BUT, I do know you need a break. Talk to him. :)<br />Love you!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04213432471222062114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26604821.post-65790867050506429302010-04-30T05:32:01.813-04:002010-04-30T05:32:01.813-04:00I'm really sorry Tasha. I'm sorry that yo...I'm really sorry Tasha. I'm sorry that you're feeling so low about everything. Things are tough, being a mother will always be hard. That guilt and feeling like a failure? Pretty much a mom-thing. And I don't think it ever goes away. And I think we're all going to do things wrong but I think the most important thing is just to do your best. And when the girls grow up and have a different perspective they'll be able to say 'things weren't perfect, but my mom did her best' I think that's all you can hope for, really :) <br /><br />And maybe things with your partner and the girls will be better if you talk about stuff with them. Let him know how you felt when he was angry. Let the girls know how much you love them and want to have a better relationship with them. Make sure everyone's on the same page.<br /><br />I know how rough it can be when it feels like you're a single parent and never see your husband. I feel like that all the time too. It's so lonely and sometimes it feels like I have no support and no one appreciates all the things that I do. <br /><br />I just hope things get better for you. I'm here if you need me, and I hope writing this post helped.Michelle Fluttering Butterflieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08793681725475475156noreply@blogger.com
