I hear ya. We take on so much responsibility as mothers that we lose part of ourselves. It is hard to reconcile who we were (usually more fun!) with who we have become. Every once in a while I fantasize about being single and child free as well. It’s OK :) I bet if we were single and child free we would wonder what it’s like to have the opposite.
Just know you aren’t alone.
You are not alone. You have the right to feel that way. All moms do. Try, even if for just once a month or two, to get away for a few hours just by yourself. It really helps. Good luck!
Yeah, you sound pretty normal to me, sister.. I think we all want to be young, fun and cute again at times and free of all responsibilities.. Take some time for yourself regularly. You didn’t bring these kids in to the world by yourself, I hope Dad is doing his part,, and grandma and grandpa
all moms have to feel that way sometimes. and the ones that claim they don’ tare just liars.
i bet our moms felt the same!
