Well hello!

My own little monster trying to open the door of the house to explore the world |
It's been a while since I wrote anything here and I know that's terrible for blogs but you know... I have a pretty good excuse, I was learning to be a mommy! This is really hard let me tell you, now that I'm a working mom I realise that I have no idea how women like my two grandmas could've had 7 kids! 7 little monsters running around the house?! What.. no way. Don't get me wrong, I love being a mom and I enjoy every second of it (sometimes more than others) but this really got me thinking.

This is us. I treasure every moment I have with her. |
I know that times are different and back then people didn't believe or even knew anything about birth control; yes, men didn't like that and they had to have their women whenever or something because of machism. Still women back then (and now for those who still do it that way) had tons of children, one after the other, and they had virtually no help, I believe that's something to admire.
I work so I'm not with my little girl full time, but on the weekends when I am with her I get so tired, more than when I go to work. Kids need attention and they need their mommys and daddys to play with them to develop skills; I don't know if it's just me or it's the common feeling out there but kids wear you off and living the mommy experience makes me admire and have more respect for my grandmas and my mom (my mom was more reasonable, I only have a sister).
A toast to all the women who give their lives for their children, for those women who take care of them and don't neglect them. I admire you.
