Still weird...

I still don't feel like a mom all the time yet. I love my son dearly, but I halfway keep expecting his "real" parents to show up and take him home. I think part of it is that I'm still not used to being a SAHM either. That's all I can figure. I had him over summer break, and I think my teacher brain is still confused b/c it just feels like the longest, most exhausting, coldest summer break ever. I feel terrible saying this, but I kind of miss my old life.

    I miss my old life sometimes too. Sometimes I just want to be able to sleep again like I used to or hang out with friends late on a Friday night. I think it's normal to feel that way.

  • I remember these feelings all too well.... I had a really difficult time adjusting at first, and I think it was mostly do the fact that I really thought it would have come naturally to me.  I grew up around kids and taking care of them and I teach
