Hmmmm... random thoughts

I dont really have anything in particular to write about today but was in the mood for just rambling on about nothing... wow how priviledged are you? Any of you that have children will know what I mean when I say that Go Diego Go is on in the background and Miss Ella is totally engrossed, yeh I know I can hear you from here, I shouldnt be using the tv as a babysitter.... but geez I just really need some time out. Hubby is at work and Miss Ella is not only teething, learning to walk and a BRAT she also is refusing to sleep more than 2 hours at a time... which is starting to make me as grumbly as she is. I always listened when people said that being a Mum really is hard work and at times I would say that it isnt that bad, but when it comes to weeks like this I know exactly why my Mum wanted to make sure I really was ready to have a child. I think the hardest part for me is that as a parent you totally give up yourself and your independence because there is just no time for it, or when there is time for it, its not the right time... not even sure if that makes sense hahaha!! It's funny because as challenging as it is at times, I wouldnt give it up for the world, there is nothing as amazing and beautiful as the love you have for your own children.
