I keep this note in my phone. Obviously, November 19th was a bad day, but I honestly don't remember any of the details of how things went down.
Unfortunately, I still have days like this. I imagine every mom does.
And the thing that never ceases to amaze me is that even though, logically, I know I'm not alone when it comes to the hardships of raising children - emotionally, I always feel like there's no one else who understands what I'm going through.
And even though I allow my daughters to influence me to feel like the worst person in the world, one millisecond of bliss within our home can make up for a week of obstacles. And suddenly I'm the best mom in the world.
Motherhood truly is fascinating. I'll never master it.

There are times when I feel like I'm missing out by not having my own kids, but I honestly don't know if I'm really equipped with the patience required. I kind of think the step-mom role is more suited for me. I get to love the kiddos and be there for them, but I'm not responsible for dealing with the tantrums and the icky stuff.
