There gets a point I can no longer “show up” and do all the things.
When I was a little girl envisioning my life as a grown up, I thought of two things. I would be an “always-there” mom – you know, the kind who bakes cookies for her kids on a whim, is always home when they are done with school, and is present and involved in every aspect of their lives., I would work my butt off and be financially independent. When I was very little, I wanted to work in a grocery store . Later, I wanted to be a teacher, a midwife, or a writer.
I basically arrange my life, my schedule, and my soul around my kids’ lives. And I know I’m not alone. So many working mothers operate this way. During the school year, I wake up with my kids, make them breakfast, fight with them to eat said breakfast, fight with them to get dressed, and push them out the door to school. Then, I immediately get to work. I work until the very last second when I have to pick them up from school. I’m supposedly “off” work until my husband comes home to take over. But I’m usually finishing up work/answering messages and emails while I do the after school care/dinner/homework run.
. And yes, I get that. I get that it’s a privilege to have what I have. And I appreciate it. I don’t take it for granted for a second.
