Hi guys, today I would like to share with you my experience as a multitasking mother, wife, woman and etc.
Nowadays is hard sometimes to be mother of a toddler, working 40 hours a week and trying to be also good wife, daughter, friend… housekeeper, cook…to work out 4-5 times a week, to spend quality time with your kid and with your husband…to be a good looking young woman with nice hair, always perfect nails…come on…who could do all that 😂 I mean…one day is just 24 hours…and for me, if I have to be honest, are not enough…
Sometimes my son goes to bed after 11 PM and yes, I don’t have the power to wash my hair for example after that time, because we usually wake up around 8 o’clock in the morning…and yes, mommy needs some sleep too.
Another topic is that we sleep almost 8 hours now, after our baby boy turned 2,5 years, before that we used to be awake several times during one night.
I don’t have someone who’s helping me with the domestic work…so I either have to send my son and husband out at the playground to try to clean the house meanwhile or have to spend also some quality time with my family. My point is that I rather choose to spend some time with my husband and kid than loose it with housekeeping…and no, my house is not a total mess but it’s not also like just got shot in a magazine, especially with a toddler in it 😄
Me and my husband are privileged to receive help with our boy from my gorgeous mother, who always takes him with her when we need a little break, because parents are people too and we as a lot of you probably need a break, to spend some time alone, to be able to do our own things as a couple not only as a parents. And for me this is very important…to keep that sparkle in your relationship.
Sometimes is better to leave some dirty dishes in the sink and to turn the washing machine later, because the time spent with your kid is priceless… the dishes could wait, but your kid won’t be a kid for a long time and one day you’ll miss all those little moments…. it’s priceless, believe me 🥰
Multitasking or not, there always will be hard times being a woman these days, but it’s up to us if we allow all those stereotypes and expectations to make our days harder or to just hug your kid, kiss your husband and go out for a walk with a sink full of dirty dishes 😉
Thank you for reading my story guys!
Have a wonderful Saturday!
xoxo
Yours
