For example, I hear my sister or sil saying how hard and tiring it is to be a mom to 2 and I can't help but laugh and say to myself Really? Try taking care of 7 and being pregnant on top of it! I don't SAY it because then that implies that my pregnancy and 7 children are burdens, which they are not. Or I hear a new mom to be say Oh my gosh I didn't get my nap today, how will I live? And I think…..nap?? What IS a nap?? How do I get one?

I have to remind myself that I was there once expecting my first, I was once the mother of just one, then 2, then 3, then…..well you get the point.

Funny thing is- I never play the 'my life is…' card. My friends are the first ones to minimize their situations when that's not what I want them to do. Just because you aren't in my boat doesn't mean it's not hard for you too.

Side note- if I hear 'Oh I bet you have your hands full' from one more person I WILL punch them in the face.

Pretty much anything that starts with "just wait til" makes me stabby.
