everyday i start off with the best intentions.
get out of my pj's before 9.
eat a non-sugary breakfast.
check something off my to-do list.
and be a good mom.
yet it seems that everyday i fail.
sometimes i fail big. sometimes just a little.
but nonetheless, i fail.
because somewhere in between
breakfast, nap time and story time
something, something always falls in the cracks.
and i'll be laying in bed
exhausted from the day, thinking
i forgot to give them their vitamins
did they eat enough peas?   
i should feed them veggies more
why does monkey still have accidents?    
i need to make him use his potty more
shouldn't mucus know all his colors by now?    
i should go over those more

i should. i really should. i need to do more. 
more stories. more puzzles. more veggies. 
so much more.
so tomorrow we start again.

hey Ate. I think you're a little more worried than you should be, that that's just being a good mother. All will come in time. I know that's a hard pill for me to swallow, coz I want the control, but soon you'll see that the boys will eat more, pee less (in areas not wanted) and know so much more than you can imagine! I can't wait for an opportunity like that to come my way! Love you!
