Sad
Wesley just asked me "Mom, why are you just a mom and not someone who has a job?" which made me sad. 
I actually even started to cry a little. I know he doesn’t mean anything by it but it still hurts.
I need to go – he’s being a pain (again)about getting ready for school.
michaela asks me all the time why don’t i work. and i tell her that i DO work. taking care of her and her brother is a full-time job in itself. next time w asks, tell him that.

🙁 Oh sweetie, I can see why that hurt your feelings! But just know that when he’s old enough to look back, I bet he will appreciate having you home. You are doing a great job. 🙂 *hugs*

Try not to be too sad. Tell him you have the most important job in the world and that’s being a mommy. You can tell him when you make him breakfast in the morning that it’s part of your job of being mommy, dinner, washing clothes, folding clothes, taking him to school etc. He’ll understand. Gotta teach em young! lol

sheesh.. being a mom is a job.. she is a housekeeper, a babysitter, a dishwasher, a laundress, a nurse, a maid, a pharamist, a taxi driver, a repair woman, a teacher, a psychiarist, a cook, a baker, an accountant, a hairdresser, a negotiator.. and more that don’t even have titles.. be not ashamed.. be proud.. you are shaping our future..
