RE: Stopping to Enjoy Parenting is My Personal Challenge
I completely agree with the challenges of staying present with kids. There's so much to keep up with in a busy life that it's easy to fall in to "Get Stuff Done" mode and miss out on the quality of life.
Great post - Great reminder!
Thank you. It's wonderful to receive understanding. I've received judgement for sharing this type of thing before--as if, as a woman, being a mother is the only thing I can do to positively define my life. And if I'm not enjoying it, I'm doing it wrong. When the reality is it's hard work.
