Stay at home mom

Do you ever get mad when your husband asks what you do all day? When you say your tired and family members roll their eyes at you? Or my all time favorite " why is the house messy since you stay home all day and I work".. Like raising 3 kids is a walk in the park or the even harder part CLEANING after 3 kids... I can't even pee alone or sneak eat snacks without sharing so how does anyone think this job is easy? I don't even normally leave the house cause honestly I'd rather cut off an arm than try to take these 3 anywhere by myself... So what gives off the impression that this is so easy? cause I'm home? over worked? under paid? and by under paid I mean my only source of payment is kisses and hugs...  The life of a stay at home mom is far from glamorous but I consider it more of the ultimate career rather than the life of ease.... in my 2 years of being a stay at home mommy I have become a maid, chef, taxi driver, referee, secretary, laundromat, teacher, tea party thrower, art teacher and more. with that being said my house is not perfect.. even being home all day I just can't find the time to play with my kids, potty train, take care of baby and have a spotless house.. theres just not enough time in the day....cause even being home there is no sitting and watching desperate housewives on tv... no phone breaks... no break period.. even when nap time comes by then I'm cleaning up the mess the kids made before napping or holding my screaming 3 month old who isn't a scheduled napper yet...

speaking of the little cutie here she is!! Which to add even more to my " what we do all day" this little nugget is the most colicky baby I've ever seen in my life... But anyway while  I'm enjoying my life as a stay at home mom heres what I'm doing... PLAYING WITH MY KIDS 

teaching my kids how to play sports, group games, share become future athletes or at least a kid that plays outside rather than sitting in front of the tv...

Encouraging them opening their imagination to build and explore 

become future artists 

or future chefs 

or at least just tiny people that pee in the potty

or teaching them to love each other as siblings and friends.. To take care of each other, share and how to "love baby" cause lets face it some day these kids will be the parents in the world.

Toddlers minds are so open and ready to learn and explore and be apart of the world. How can you manage to sit for a min when these tiny people are asking 1,000 questions a day... All about stuff that they are so excited to learn and talk about... We are raising the future adults in this world and I'm happy to say I know exactly how the ones I put out are being raised. Cause I'm instilling in them each and every day a picture of what love and support looks like... I just hope that when they are older with kids of their own they remember how hard mommy tried. How much effort and love was constantly put into them to grow their dreams... That gentle hands guided them not screaming voices... That they had a support and cheer team supporting them at all times... That we made constant effort to play with them and be involved rather than staring lifeless at our phones... We wanted to be the parents most people don't ever get.. Which is extremely tiring when its 24/7... I hope they remember that I dreamed of becoming their mom so I cherished every moment of staying home with them even if 80% of the time was just being their referee while folding our giant mountain of laundry.. So in the end I don't mind the eye rolls about staying home, or money questions or rude messy house comments. Because at the end of the day I know I'm so blessed to give myself and my children an experience so many don't get to have... The chance to really be around the first few years to watch them learn and grow into the people they are going to become... But right now I'll just hope they become people that eventually learn to pee in the potty and sleep through the night... So heres playing with kids instead of having perfectly clean houses cause kids grow fast and leave but dishes will always be dirty...
