Embracing the messy part of life

Once upon a time there was a mom. Who spent every minute she could with her babies. 

Who cleaned house and made dinner. Who's husband was happy and she was happy. Her kids were always good & they were always clean and dressed.

& they all lived Happily ever after.

The end. 

Okay now that we got the fairy tale out of the way. Let's talk about Embracing the mess of life which is reality. Let's face it, I can no longer spend every minute with my boys, especially now that I'm working. But that doesn't stop them from climbing into my lap while I work & that's perfectly fine with me. 

Let's face it - our husband's and ourselves aren't always happy because that's part of life. No one is happy all the time and it is completely fine to have down days! 

My kids are in fact not always good and not always clean. They like to get as dirty as possible and make huge messes! But, that's part of having kids.

Are we living happily ever after - of course. Because we choose too. 

We embrace the messy reality of life. 

We roll with the punches & are thankful for the life we were giving. 

It's a choice and all you have to do is make that choice.

Do you embrace the messy part of life?
