Running on empty
Hi Moms,
Working mom of a 4 and 2 year old. I’m in my late 30s.
I am sure my experience is common, but find I am always running on empty between work and kids.
Also seems as if the older the kids get the more rowdy they come and everything becomes more difficult. I feel as if I was happier with one kid, since I had more time for myself.
Between doing my best at work, feeding myself the family with healthy meals, keeping the house cleaned and being an available parent is hard.
If anyone knows when it gets better let me know. Feels like I’ve had enough.
