The quest to being the "Perfect Mom"

As a mom, we stress about EVERYTHING! We worry about what are house looks like, if that certain outfit is clean for hubby, what's for dinner, what are child(ren) are doing at any given moment, and what sales are out there this week!
I can't stand to feel overwhelmed! At this moment in my life, my house is a wreck, we have a least 5-6 loads of dirty laundry, I couldn't even begin to tell you what is in my fridge that I could make to eat, when I asked my child what she was doing, I got this in response, "It's ok Mommy, I won't hurt myself the scissors!" (they were safety scissors and she isn't allowed to use them without supervision because she thinks she is a (hair dresser)  and I haven't seen a store in a week! But I have to say that we have had an amazing weekend so far...
We blew bubbles, danced and sang in the grass, we went to one of the most powerful ballet recitals ever (that my baby was a part of) and then settled with a movie! At that moment when my 4 yr old was laughing and having an amazing time, none of the above stuff mattered! It was just about our family being together! I can say that I may not have it all together, but my family is happy and healthy.

Until next time, which we all know might be a while!
