“It’s Tough to be a Stay at Home Mom”
Aug 5th, 2008 by mom
It makes me feel good when I hear other people acknowledge how difficult it is to be a stay at home mom. Many of my teacher/mom friends are in their final weeks of at-home time and though are not necessarily jazzed at going back to work, many of them are ready for a little time away from the house and kids.
You know, it isn’t rocket science or even Physiology 103 (my toughest college course), but it is mentally and physically exhausting to be a SAHM. You love these little critters more than anything, but boy (and girl!) can they drive you crazy.
I know from experience how hard it is to leave your child to go to work everyday. I know I am HUGELY blessed to have the opportunity to stay home during these early years, but in the end I’m glad that other people find it hard, too.
SAHM’s: stay strong and have fun
Back to work mom’s: enjoy your time off from the kiddos!
I know. School starts tomorrow here and I can’t wait. There are so many kids that will not be coming back to my school (does that sound bad?).
