Parenting is hard

-
Who ever said parenting was easy, must not have kids. Because it is not easy, it is actually hard. You are constantly making sure that they are feed, that they have clothes that fit them and so on. And also on top of that you have other responsibilities that you have to take care, like bills and of course your health and so on.

I really would like to meet the parents that find parenting easy. I would love to know how it is easy for them because it is not easy. At least not that I can see from being a parent and seeing my friends and family members that are parents.

Do not get me wrong I would not change a thing. I love my daughter and I would do anything for her that I possible can. But it is still hard and right now it seems harder as she is in her terrible twos (or should I said terror twos lol).

She is not always so terrible, we do have our moments of where she is a very good girl but those moments where she just pitches a fit for no reason oh my lord, that is all I can say at the moment on that lol.

Again I just have to say parenting is hard but I would not change a thing.

    I think it's all about perspective. I find being the mom of a 2 year old extremely easy, but I think that is in large part because for many years, I worried I would not be able to be a mom. We struggled with infertility, and did 2 rounds of IVF (at $15,000 each) to have my 27 month old. Since then, we've done it two more times, with a miscarriage at 17 weeks. I work full time, but cannot get enough of her. I miss her when she sleeps, or when I have to leave her to go on a long run. It is not that moms who find it hard don't feel this way, but I am just so dang thankful to be able to clean up after her or do the extra laundry; to have a little being who has opinions and cries and refuses to let me put on her shoes sometimes that it is not hard. What seems hard to me - and frightening even - is the thought of not having her.

      True. We also struggled with infertility also and our daughter came to us through adoption and no matter how hard this parenting is I dont know what I would do without her in my life.

Update

 Sorry that it has been like 2 years since I have made a post.  I think I left off with a update of Addison fixing her first year of preschool. She did a half of a year of preschool after that (2019/2020) but Dec 2019 we had to pull her out of preschool because of not being able to afford it much as we had to get a new car. yeah starting like maybe the summer of 2019 we started having car problems after car problems. We was head down to New Orleans back in the summer of 2019 our car at the time started messing up on us. First it just needed the freon for the air in the car, then like maybe few weeks later the coolant started to stay low. We get back home with it and spend like I think about $400 to $500 one on getting it fixed. It was doing good for awhile and then our other car started having problems at that time we was like okay we just going to trade it off for a truck (we had been thinking about doing that anyways but we was trying to wait a little bit longer lol.) Things...

Surprised at how long it took my daughter to learn to ride a tricycle

I am surprised at how long it took my daughter to learn to ride her tricycle that she got for Christmas. I think she learnt to go backwards with not to long after getting it. But the going forward she had it learnt like two to three weeks after Christmas. And here it is Feb and she has it down packed. Well, at least in the house she does. She still doesnt want to paddle it out side yet. but I know she will get the hang of it soon. Plus we havent been able to spend to much time outside as it has either been too cold or wet from rain or snow one. I will be so glad when it warms up and stops raining for a little bit so that way she can go outside and enjoy playing out there.

It has been a while hasnt it

 I know it has been a good while since I have posted on this blog. Well on any blog lol. Things are going good. We took the time to grieve (well we are still grieving and always will be.) Some days are better then other days. Some days are on the bad side. Addison has had more bad days with her grief her lately. I know she is going through alot and it does make her miss her baby sister (Olivia Rose). but we are getting through it as a family. We always make sure that she knows that we will always be here for her anytime she needs us. She can cry and miss her sister anytime she needs or wants to and we will be here for the hugs when she wants them.  We do miss Olivia Rose daily. There is not a day that doesnt go by that we do not think about her. She is our little angel in heaven. We have decided that since every year (since 2021) we get a ornament to hang on the tree for Olivia Rose, that we get a christmas tree that will be Olivia Rose's memorial christmas tree. We put it on ...
