I'm blogging!

Well, here it goes. I have a lot to say, good and bad. To read my blog you definitely need to bear with me through thick and thin, very thin, like so thin it's see-through. k? k.
I stay home to raise my little men and sometimes I get so wrapped up in the daily routine, struggles, and fun stuff, that I become isolated with toddlers. I've sort of given up my "grown- up" life, meaning I don't really have the social life that used to fulfill me. I miss that life. Dearly. Yet at the very same time, I don't miss it. Confusing, I know. So, day to day I struggle to stay in the moment and truly cherish and enjoy this time with my little guys, all the while trying to keep it cool, stay patient, and get all my duties done. I consider myself extremely lucky to stay at home to raise them. It is not done without huge monetary and social sacrifice. Until you stay home 24/7 with your kids, you probably can't fully appreciate the go-to-work-grown-up-socializing-seeing other adults day to day-life. Some days-the grass is greener on the other side. But most of the time, I'd say my grass is rainbow green! I love being a mom to John and Jake. They are funny lil guys with a lot a lot a lot of energy. This my S.A.H.M. life!
