Most days I feel like I can accomplish my daily tasks. Most days I enjoy the rhythm of having little ones around. Most days I don't mind the sound of the laundry washing or the small pitter-patter of feet hopping round. Oh and most days I don't mind being asked to create swords and compasses and paint faces of all sorts. Most days I feel like a damn good mama. But today I don't. And it is not because of anything really. I guess its normal to get a little overwhelmed every once and awhile.
In the past when I would have days like this, I would get stuck and I would find it hard to let go of it. These days when it happens, I let it and then I actually move on!
I am beginning to realize that although I have a list of things to do that goes on forever, they will get done in due time.
We are just back from a trip up to Tofino which was a mixed bag of events. Just when you think you are in a good groove, you plan a trip and boom!

i totally get what you are saying. there are just some days that i just question what i am doing, but as you said i just try to let it go. most of the time it works. :)
hope you had a good show.
Bella has the same winter coat. Aren't they wonderful!
I feel for you - although most days around here aren't so easy - you are lucky that most of your days are good days. Our little one is so frustrated that he can't crawl forward or walk. We have had a few good days in a row so maybe the tide is changing..
today Ophelia told me she didn't like me...crush...then she told me she loved me - this isn't an easy job and sometimes not the most rewarding, it's the little things that make it all better.
I know you don't come here often but in case you do... tag your it! Sorry Anna... http://mi.typepad.com/mi/2009/01/6-facts.html
I just found you through waldorf mama. I think we all go through the highs and lows I love the days when I can feel how great things are going and what a great mama I am. On the lower days I just try and change the routine a little to get myself out of the funk. I love rythym and routine but every once in awhile a little vacation helps us all.
