It's been one of those weeks...

It's been one of those weeks where the days simply slipped away!  It's Thursday and I don't know where the the week went. I spent most of Monday disciplining my middle child for being mouthy and disrespectful to his sister.  I spent most of the evening dealing with Curly and Cupcake fighting - prying them apart from one another.  I miss my husband - he's home, but he's been working a ton and when he gets home at night, he says hi to the kids we eat dinner and back to work.  Although I adore my oldest child, he's been rolling his eyes at me a lot this week and it's driving me NUTS!  At Karate yesterday, my daughter decided to have a complete melt down because she left her white belt at home.  I'm tired.  I'm in a FUNK.  Maybe it's this strange summer weather. Maybe it's just me.

 I am going to visit my sister tonight and hold her little week and a half old Golden Retriever puppies that I am sure I'll fall in love with.  I am looking forward to having my kiddos play with their cousins and have some time with my sister.

A good friend recently told me she thought my life was so put together..she reads my blog and can't believe how put together my life and my family are - well, friend, this post is for YOU!  My life is just the same as yours.  I don't have it all together.

I find myself wishing for more.  I look at other people's blogs and wonder "HOW?".  How do they do it all? I wish I could sew.  I wish I had a craft room. I wish I was more creative.  I wish I could read better and faster. I wish I had more time to bake.  The reality is....I can only do so much.

There are only 6 weeks of summer left and my heart is getting sad that my girl will start Kindergarten and my husband will be traveling the globe the week the kids start school.  I guess it's just been one of those weeks.  I'm rambling my thoughts all over the place, but I wanted you to know that I am nowhere near being put together.

Why do you think I have not been blogging, haha. People seem to just blog about the "happy" stuff. What a truthful blog that many may not write. We all have those days:)
