a (semi) quiet moment

I am waaaaayyy behind on blogging! Sorry- but, 3 little ones are pretty demanding! I'm taking a moment to catch up- 1 asleep- 2 fighting sleep- but, no one screaming or really needing me at the moment- we will see how long it lasts!!!!


I was sitting here- rocking Conner and he was having a heart to heart with me- he "talked" for probably 5 minutes- there is no proof because every time I pressed record on my phone- he stopped- when I hit stop- he would start up again.
As we were chatting- I was thinking that this is the most wonderful thing in the world- snuggles with your sweet baby. I guess I God allowed me that quiet moment with Conner to remind me that I do love being a mommy. Just minutes earlier- I was truly about to lose my mind- naptime wasn't an option for the others. (Conner is again talking to himself to keep himself awake- oh well.. he isn't crying...yet!) This mommy of 3 little ones is tough stuff.
Don't get me wrong.... I LOVE being a mommy. But, it is hard! Seems like someone is always needing something. And sometimes I feel like I just can't give them all 100 % without short changing someone. Or without losing my patience and mind... I'm sure the sleep deprivation is playing a large role in the mental breakdowns.
Sometimes....all you need is a rocking chair and some snuggles to bring your mind back to what you love the most.
