Trying to Enjoy it, Whilst Loving on Coffee

   Today I had an epiphany – It was Monday, again. I am not sure how long it has been since I knew what day of the week it was. I had some groceries delivered, washed a load of laundry and failed to get a 4-month-old to sleep (See Facebook Post). In fact, this blog post almost didn’t happen again because of some cray-cray crayon mom $#!%. I tried everything she was familiar with –  swaddling, warm bottle (I should’ve tried a little Sailor Jerry’s) and wearing her out by exercising her little legs. And as it turns out, being a mom and running two businesses, taking care of a house and yourself can be difficult with a baby. Who knew a 4-month-old would start teething? Not this mama! I had two potential clients call  me today and little Mariah Carey is in the background singing her her hit-new-song, “I Wanna Cry.” It sounds a lot like her 1991 hit, “I Don’t Wanna Cry,” but a little louder, faster and ‘whinier’. Worst song I’ve ever listened to  in my life… It is hard to enjoy being a mom and that’s really the only thing that has been hard, so far. Everyday I wake up and take on the day with what seems like, a new baby. However, she might be turning into a human-being; forming her own opinions, desiring certain toys over others and learning the good and the bad things about life. I remember when she was first born (16 weeks ago…) and all I wanted to do was take her home and love on her, which did happen – for a month or so. Now, it seems like she wants nothing to do with love – just food, toys, clean diapers, sleep and of course her pacifier. People tell me it gets better and junk. I’m just trying to enjoy it, whilst loving on coffee.
