my purpose is…..
February 2010 :
My 5 year old began his first year of school at the beginning of the year. We’re all very excited. He’d been looking forward to it for months.
At the same time my 3 year old began going to Kindy for 2 days a week, also very exciting for all involved…..
except for the tiny fact that I’m a little out of sorts.
You see, I’ve been lucky enough to be a stay at home Mum since the day our children were born, & I can count on 1 hand the number of times we’ve left them with a babysitter for a night out.
So I’ve literally spent the past 5 years in constant contact with my children. And suddenly I’m home alone & I have no clue what to do with myself or even how to process the feelings.
I’m wondering what my purpose is now that I’m home alone. Stupid thoughts I know.
I’m on my 4th month of this now & it still feels weird. I keep looking for Reilly wherever I go….
Anyway, it gives me time to play in RedBubble, that’s always a good thing.
