What is it about those moments where you have nothing to do, and should be relaxing - those moments that you want so badly - that cause you to think about things that are not realistic. For example - I am a working mom, a self-admitted busy body... but I still think about how awesome it would be to stay home and have babies and be nothing but crafty and awesome. Then I get sad thinking that I have somehow missed out on my son by working.
Then I snap back to reality... I can barely make it all weekend without leaving the house to do something, anything just to get a moment of peace from the madness of pets and kids and cleaning. That doesn't mean that I don't want it - I am sure that I could find something to do...
Then when it's quiet - I am bored. No one needs my help, I don't need to dodge that sneaky lego that always seems to find my bare foot, and I am not leaning against the sink to put in my contacts and leaning back to realize that I am covered in sparkly kids Crest and need to change. Again.
While there is something magical in those quiet moments... I can't help but to miss the chaos of my 'real life'. ♥
