I spend a good part of my week organising work, housework and cooking so I can be a lady of leisure on Thursdays (when I go to, or host mothers’ group) and not worry about anything else. Of course all this organising doesn’t seem to make any difference, I still end up working to get some last minute assignment in and usually end up running around at the end of the day to clean up some of the trail of toy vomit that Riley has left in her wake. All of this is worth it just to get us both out of the house once a week to converse with people whose eyes don’t glaze over when I talk about my day-to-day.
Recently with the little munchkins turning into toddlers and running around the place like mad things I have become acutely aware of how different is going to be once I have more than one baby. And how much I want to appreciate every moment with Riley now, because it will be the only time in my life that I have the luxury of only one child.
So with that in mind, after I’d raced around this afternoon cleaning up after the chaos that seven children can create – I put off making dinner and played with my little one outside. We had a great time, I’m not so sure about the cat though . . .
My name is Zoey.
