I don't know how I ever worked and kept up at home, too! It seems these past few weeks, I have just been sooooooo swamped. I know that a lot of it is self induced. I want the house to be perfectly decorated for Christmas, even if we are the only ones that see it. I have just been lost in thought and piles of stuff to do. Even my to-do lists are not helping me keep everything going. Oh well, it is the holidays after all.
I talked to a friend Friday night at Supper with Santa. She has always been one to do it all. Homemade meals, freshly baked goodies, perfectly dressed kids, gorgeously decorated and clean home....and she works full time. As we talked she told me how things have just been building up, and she was at her breaking point. She said she had to admit to herself that she just could not do it all anymore. It made me feel a little better. I guess as a mom, a wife, and first and foremost a woman, we put a great deal of pressure on ourselves and each other. It even seems how well dressed or not the husband is, is the wife's fault.
Okay, I'm off my soap box. I know Christmas cards should have been mailed last week, but they were mailed today. Here are some snaps of the CUTEST boy you have ever seen!!! My Parker! Oh, he can tell you his first and last name, my name, and Alex's.....tooo cute!
