Lost in the Word, MOM.
I think it probably happens to every mom at some point. Maybe not. But it's definitely happening to me.
I'm forgetting what I like. I'm losing myself in the job of mommy. A job I love. But one that I won't do so well at without a personal identity.
My husband and I realize how important it is to have personal time -- time with friends, time by ourselves, time to develop our own hobbies and interests. He's doing really good (I think) at scheduling in fun activities that keep his battery charged.
I'm having a more difficult time.
So, I'm asking myself -- what do I LIKE DOING? What are my favorites? What charges me up? I'm making a list....so eventually, when I get time for myself, I'll have plenty of ideas to draw from.
I will be posting a series of posts tagged -- "Things MOM Loves".
First on the list -- Classical Music. And I have tickets to Sleeping Beauty tomorrow night!! We'll see if I like the ballet as much as the Tchaikovsky. I'm excited about this chance to revisit one of my passions and enjoy some time for myself! I'll tell you all about it. =)
