what to do
Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to be a Mom. I wanted 2 girls to share things with. To be friends with, to do things with them and to share lives with them. Well you know that old saying "be careful what you wish for". I have 2 daughters. Both are unique in their own way. Both are wonderful and loving. But they both drive me up the wall.
I often wonder when I get to do what I want. When I get to say what I want, what I think or give my opinion. When do I get to say no and not feel guilty about it? When will they ever be happy for me because I'm doing or going or seeing what I want? When will they understand that I have feelings that get hurt by words or actions? When will they understand that I've done the best I could for them, that I've always put them first, that I've given up alot to make sure they got what was necessary. When will they understand that I have been there for them and if for some reason I wasn't it wasn't because I was out enjoying myself, it was because I had to work. Being a single mom isn't easy. It was me that had to put a room over their heads, clothes on their backs and food in their tummys. I did my best, I continue to do my best and I will still always be there for them.
