Moms Need A Break Too

mye — Sun, 29 May 2011 05:58:28 +0000

Mommy’s have the most rewarding job above everyone else – they get to raise the kids at home, work when needed, do the house work, budget the finances and plan every single thing at home. Some mothers, who are even plain housewives still do a terrific job of being a mom. Other, are working at home moms who are even busier trying to manage their time. And then there are working moms, who mostly are out of the house 8-12 hours a day working for a public or private firm. Each of us have different stories but I bet, all of us are busy and we are still looking for some time to take a break and just breathe!

If only we can bring our children somewhere safe like Childcare Adamstown, we can probably be assured that they will be properly taken cared of for even a day. That way, we moms can leisurely spend some time to be alone and just be ourselves. Go to a spa, have a massage, do some shopping. It’s what we girls love to do. And we lost them all when we decided to devote our lives to give our family and children, a better future.

In our place, it is very rare to see a child care facility. What we have are play rooms inside the mall where moms normally leave their kids and be free to roam around. Personally, I don’t leave my kids there alone – there has to be someone to look after them. It wasn’t a problem before because we have 2 nannies to look after them. But now that they are both gone – my husband and I need oto do everything by ourselves. So, if I want to spend some time alone with myself, I ask him to look after the girls at home or bring them somewhere and have daddy-daughters bonding. That way, the time I spend away from my girls are the time my husband gets to bond with them – no loss, all gain.

Do I Need Fat Burners

A lot of mothers have been constantly asking whether they need one or not. The fat burners have been really famous because, women, after giving birth would normally want to be back in shape again – quick. A number has been successful but a lot failed. And that is the reason why most mothers really gained weight after pregnancy.

Motherhood has a lot of sacrifices, physically and emotionaly. But that doesn’t mean we became less ourselves when we become mothers. We gained more, we have children to make our homes alive. And the family we’ve been dreaming of is finally in our hands.

Of Being a Mother

While I was online looking for an epson receipt printer, I received a task to write an article about mothers. At first glance, i thought it was just easy and yours truly gladly accepted it. As I begin my analysis and started drafting the article, the topic would always have some difficulties that I just can’t simply explain nor give inputs for I fully understand that there immeasurable things. I thought an article about mothers will be just as easy – not!

I needed help and assistance from fellow mothers, friends and daughters for opinions and inputs about the article. I wanted to gather as much information as possible to be able to write a good article and hopefully, I will be able to complete it within the week.

Just as it was difficult to write about a mother, allow me to say it is even more difficult to enumerate the things that a mother does for her family. The sacrifices, the heartbreaks (each one of us have this or will soon come to face this), the love, the pride that motherhood brings is precious and it cannot be valued by anything in this world.

Now, after getting all the inputs needed, will I be able to complete my article soon? I hope so.

Lack of Sleep

My sister-in-law is still missing in action and might be able to come back later this week. Finally, I can have a little extra time to rest and sleep and get my energy back. I have been having dark circles lately due to lack of sleep and most of the time, I feel dizzy in the office. I am having a terrible time with work and I am not as effective as I used to be. It is indeed a bad habit not having enough hours of sleep everyday. Well, I should make it clear that it isn’t a habit but it is just how my life goes on every day!

As much as I wanted to sleep more and get more rest, I don’t have enough time to do so. The hours in a day aren’t enough to complete all the tasks that I need to accomplish and there has been some pending items on my list already. Plus, I need to tend the kids when I get home and tidy the house before going to bed. I just can’t sleep with all the mess around and despite being so tired, it’s like my body automatically grabs on to things and start the cleaning. After everything is settled, the kids are upstairs and ready to sleep, the dogs have eaten, the house is tidy again, that is my only time to take a shower and be ready for bed. By that time, it’s already 12 midnight. These tiring days are the best days for me to sleep because I don’t need extra effor to force myself. LOL!

Anyway, I will be teaching the kids to go to bed early in preparation for the school days so I better teach myself to sleep early too! I guess it’s not just the kids who need to learn but the mother as well.

The Reciprocal of Being a Mother

Is receiving tons of love from your children and your husband. The impact that a mother bring to her children can never be valued by any financial figure. This is an untiring occupation. And last month, I am very very fortunate to have received some great mothers day gifts from my family.

I wasn’t expecting anything that day but hubby wanted to go out for a movie and insisted we should so off we go. I was only informed that day we will be leaving the kids in a playroom inside the mall they can enjoy the day. Unfortunately, the store have closed all the playrooms for reasons we don’t know so we were left with bringing the kids to the cinema and it was the very first movie. Ironman 2! The kids enjoyed it being their first but there were times that they wanted to go out already due to some scenes they don’t want to see. We were lucky to have finished the movie without any problems with the kids LOL!

I was insisting to go home after the movie because I still need to work on a couple of kits but hubby wanted to have dinner and while eating, they all greeted me a Happy Mother’s Day. It was a very special day for me. I may not be as surprised as I should be but it really made me happy.

One cannot really measure or put any value as to what a mother brings to her child. A mother is a constant companion, a teacher, a chauffeur, a personal nurse, etc. She does everything for her family and most of the time, she sacrifices a lot for them.

So if you belong to those who still doesn’t appreciate what your mother does for you – it’s time you see what she does and be thankful you have her.
