Catch up!!!


Well another day to play catch up. It seems that ever since i had Yiorgos I've been playing catch up. Now all my family knows that when I, Samantha Gosselin (formally a mckay) plays catch up usually nothing happens. I am so lazy, it takes me hours just to do one thing.


Well not anymore. Here I'm cleaning, cooking, being a mom and a wife. and no matter how hard i work it seems like i have to work harder to finish everything. I have to feed the baby,but he will be hungry in a couple hours. He now can manipulate his father to cry till he gets his mommy. I am caring a child all the time. And when i get some time when he naps I do a load of dishes only to have more then i did a couple hours later. I do laundry...only to have to do a lot more later. I don't get it i feel so tired, cranky, and frustrated. I try so hard only to come up short in so many things. my home is a junk collector. And my good old nature would be to give up, stop what I'm doing and just sit there and never move.




But Luckily i am blessed. I have been blessed to be able to cook healthy meals, to have a washer and dryer in my home. I am also blessed because of my husband who tells me he is so proud of me. And lets not forget my darling Yiorgos who is so precious and cute. his laugh and good nature that he has has been wonderful. I also want to express my great gratitude for my mom and my sisters. There examples with there own children has given me the strength to be just like them. to lead my family in the gospel and to take care of them.
Gabe tells people that his wife knows her place and they think he is being a chauvinist pig. People talk about a women's right and feminist and always trying to get out of the house and want to be the bread winners. I think that being home and taking care of a family is way more harder then working outside of the home. The level of support we need to give our husbands, the confidence we have to show to them and others, even when we feel so insecure. Its tough! we have to priorities, organize, sacrifice, love unconditionally, we have to laugh its the only way to get though the day.




Well that and looking at my adorable son sure helps me out.
