It's been a bit rough around here for the past couple of weeks. My patience, head & heart are being put through the ring. I am trying to accept offered help instead of seeing it as a weakness or a lack in my ability. On top of some frustrating things we're dealing with here at chez Wachter I find I am struggling with fighting guilt for not working enough from home and guilt for not being "engaged" enough as a mom. I am trying to quiet the voices that say "so & so does all this" or "get your shit together" or "so & so can do it, why can't you".... you know those voices, I wish they came with a shut off switch that was much easier to navigate. That's where I've been, my creative / blogging self is needing a rest. My vacation is getting closer & closer and I can not wait!
Have a wonderful day friends and remember, it's okay to be broken- the cracks are how the light gets in. (taken from Leonard Cohen's song Anthem)

I am a very low-key Mom. I can't and won't "do everything"...that's just silly. I think that Dude deserves a Mom who is sane and happy and would rather sit outside with a beer or watch him play video games instead of whatever it is that Super Moms do.
As far as I am concerned, I am the BEST MOM EVER...to Dude....and that's all that counts!
P.S. You're awesome and Anna is awesome. What more could you ask for in this world?
There's that damn picture again...good for a laugh or two (at my expense) I hope!
