Wife+Mom+Worker=New Life


“If evolution really works, how come mothers only have two hands?”

This statement is my new personal motto at the moment. I have truly enjoyed going back to work because I really enjoy my job. I feel like I am working towards a larger goal than just a paycheck(which by the way is pretty important). I get to work towards funding research to help babies, which feels good. My life definately has become more scheduled and each day is full from awake till sleep. I would be lying if I didn't say that it has been difficult some days. The emotional stress of being apart from my little angel is the top most difficult thing I have experianced. In addition I still have to clean the house, cook meals, do laundry, and take care of my daughter. It is a juggling act and it takes a lot of patience and praying to keep my mind level. I love my girlfriend's words..."If we had to come back in another life, I want to come back as a man". I know men and women think differently, act differently and handle things differently. When you feel the world sits on your shoulders, some days it can get the best of you (or me!). This will sound corny and strange, but I like the movie Evan Almighty (which is on tonight ironically), because Morgan Freeman (acting as God) says a statement that I completely agree with and it gives me hope. When someone prays for patience, God does give them patience or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? I always have truly believed from my mid twenties till now, that God gives us only what we can handle. I think sometimes that is how I get through each day. My daughter makes me look forward to tomorrow because she is the apple of my eye. Now that I have said my piece of encourgement and discussed my positive thoughts.....I will get back to reality......a new blog of possibly negitive venting to come :)
