Stay at Home Mom

I know some people wonder what stay at home moms do all day.. well I'm here to tell you that we don't sit around painting our toes nails or watching soaps all day. Nor do we have all the time in the day to keep home 100% in order.. so if you happen to ever stop by my house you will see that the laundry is overflowing, the dishes are piling up, toys will be all over the house (watch your step!), kids music or praise music will be playing (to keep someone sane).
I will more than likely look like I haven't showered even though I do every morning. Yes, my shirt & pants will more than likely be stained from milk or snot. Those things do not bother me anymore, and actually I tend to feel a bit lost without this mess. While organizing used to be a priority, it's found it's place on the "never going to happen" list. There are days when I feel like running away, but then I am reminded that their smiles and laughter fill my soul with an everlasting warmth that can not be replaced by clean sheets, sexy hair, or any other frivolous thing that the world tries to offer. No, I am quite content with being a stay at home mother to my amazing, yet imperfect children. I love them with all that I have and am thankful that I live in a country where I can be a stay at home mom.
So to all the people wondering what we do all day, I ask you.. Is your life full of laughter, tears, and the moment of peace that comes when everyone is quiet? And if your not a stay at home mom, I hope that in the times you are with your children that you relish in their love, for they so desire to know that you are their everything.
