Mother’s Day Flowers
Posted on Friday, May 8th, 2009 at 8:23 am
I haven’t been feeling well lately. I’m feeling great physically, but the transition from one to two kids is really taking its toll emotionally. I feel like I never have the time to get anything done and then when I do have the time, I don’t want to do anything. So nothing gets done. As you might imagine, I have plenty to keep me busy right at this very moment, but instead I blog. I feel bad for Taylor too because he comes home day after day to a messy house. Thank goodness for everybody who has brought us dinners recently. I really do feel blessed to have such good people surrounding me. Last night as we were eating one of those dinners, there was a knock at the door. There on the front doorstep was a bouquet of two dozen roses and a box of chocolates. I cried. I’m almost crying again just thinking about it. Even though I don’t keep a very tidy home lately and don’t do much for him, my husband still loves me and wants me to have a good mother’s day. I’ll make it.
Those are so gorgeous, what a fantastic husband you have! I wish we lived closer to you guys so that we could help out with everything! Just know that you are not alone, I still feel like I am transitioning. And I should be folding laundry right now, but I am bloggin too!
I know what you’re going through! It’s harder than any recital or concert or paper we did in college, isn’t it? Taking time for yourself is definitely worth it, even if the house is messy.
It keeps us moms sane! Have a wonderful mother’s day. I’m thinking of you and wish our girls could play together.
Oh, Kierst, I’m so sorry! It can sorta kinda help to know that you are not alone in feeling like this. Thank heavens you’ve got a husband like Taylor – that guy! Good luck with your talk on Sunday and HAVE A HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
What a sweet husband you have. I love surprise or just because flowers, they’re the best! I can’t give any advice, but your a great mommy and I’m sure things will get easier for sooner rather than later. Good luck!
What beautiful flowers! It’s always so nice to have fresh flowers around, it makes me feel happy! Having a newborn is so tough on its own. So I’m sure that having a newborn and another kid around is doubly tough. If you ever need my help, I’m always here. Just around the corner!
