that's it, I'm going Duggar

mlf625 · January 2010

I don't want my babies to grow up and leave me! :::sob::: I'm just going to have 20 to prevent that from happening for a very long time.

This is very long, but a worthwhile 7 minutes for all the moms having a long day, long week, long month, and feeling frustrated with motherhood. Just get a Kleenex. I pretty much lost my shiit around the 6 minute mark and all out sobbed.

I'm afraid to watch it given that I've only seen dd for a total of 10 hours this week. SOB! It's been a bad bad week at work (ahem, watch for a press release later this afternoon) and I'm a guilt ridden, tired, mom that just wants to be at home snuggling my dd.

LOL! Or maybe we'll make it 26 and just work through the alphabet. Anderson, Bumblebee .... we're getting there.

ETA: Yes, someday I'll look back fondly on Emily wanting to nurse for the 5th time in an hour and Abby running around with nothing but a diaper on because no shirt is clean enough for her to wear apparently.

Good GAWD, woman. I am bawling! My pregnancy hormones only made it 2:55 in... I mean you reach out to hold their hand and it is no longer there?? I can't handle it. I could barely handle lowering the crib setting. Duggar for me, too... Crying

Watched it, cried. Thanks for sharing.

Nice to stop and appreciate everyday moments (like the warm sleeping baby on my lap who is smiling in his sleep).

Yeah, um, I'm running now to get J from the nanny....I can barely handle taking him down the street away from me every day...the rest of his young life, how will I do it!? Calling DH now, we're going Duggar too! haha.

You know...becoming a Duggar ain't a half bad idea! : )

Gosh, it is so hard for me to live in the moment, even though I try with all my heart. I keep flashing forward. I keep thinking about how quickly the past 4 years have gone by and that I only have a good 14 left with my Eldest...and who will or won't be here to share the "ordinary moments" with me.

Life is so hectic in the "now" that before I know it, the day is gone and I am back to lamenting about how "few" I have left.

I stay depressed about how both slowly and quickly our days together are going by.

Yup...if I could, would have more children...go the Duggar way...not feel the pain of an "empty nest" (and the impending pitter-patter of the "grim reaper"...the older your kids get...the older YOU get...but that is another story )

I don't even have a child yet, but watching this really made me think of my mom. She went through all that with my brother and I-- all the stages growing up, and I want to call her right now and just say, "thank you".
