The first Introduction

Sitting at the computer nursing. My Wedding Anniversary today, woken up by the 3 year old crying b/c she peed her bed. The diaper leaked which means I have more laundry to add to the growing pile that I can't do right now since the belt on the washer is in transit on it's way to us. It has been much too long and laundry is piling up around the house. I now have pissy sheets to add to the dirty clothes, and the sheets and comforter the baby puked on yesterday. The diaper pail is so full I had to push the lid down and am forced to buy disposable diapers today.

So who am I? A mom who is trying to raise her kids gently, although sometimes I find myself yelling or spanking. A mom who trys to leave a gentle footprint on the earth, although once the house gets trashed I tend to just grab stuff and toss it instead of recycling or reusing. I'm just a mom, any mom, trying to get through the day and be the mom I want to be. Sometime I amaze myself by what a good job I do, other times I cry b/c I failed so miserable at my goals as a parent. Overall I'm just trying to balance it all.
