Tomorrow Is Another Day

as i sit here and think about how my day was,
i'm completely classing it as "one of those days."
you know, when nothing seems to go your way and you want to crawl into a whole and stay there until it's the kids bed time.
yep, i totally had one of those.
being a mum of a newborn is tough work, it's both physically and emotionally draining.
i once again feel completely out of my depth, and think how on earth did i do this twice already?!
establishing a routining is proving to be a little challenging this time around because of school, sport, and everyday commitments that have to be fulfilled.
and then you have the "mum guilt" because i don't get the amount of time i would normally with the older boys - seriously we can NEVER win.
i'm nowhere near a perfect mother and i never will be but i hope my boys know just how much i love them even if i lose my cool quite often at this moment in time.
so today as i struggled to get everyone ready for church (on time), i spent most of the morning sitting on the floor or on my bed crying feeling completely and utterly overwhelmed at being a mum of three.
my oldest came into me, looked me into my eyes and said "mum your beautiful,"
i thank my heavenly father for these tender moments that give me the strength and reassurance to keep moving forward and to try my best.
i am not perfect, i feel completely inadequate, but i know no matter how many times i fail i can always try better tomorrow.
