A list of former facts that I now know to be truths:

"What?! Honey, what is it?! Im just trying to go potty right quick, cant you just hold on a quick second so I can pee for the first time in nine hours..."

-The answer is no.

"Havent I already told you (37 times) to turn on your listening ears? Are we having a problem listening?"

-The answer is (most always) yes.

Maybe if Im really quiet & stay in bed it will rub off on them & they will sleep in later.

-HA. The answer is no.

"What? Im meant to pick up/drop her off? Now, while Im in the midst of feeding/changing/bathing the baby?"

-The answer is yes. And its okay to drop the ball once in a while (im told)

Did I get hit by a bus?

-The answer is no, it just feels like it.

Have I ever been this tired in my life?

-The answer is no.

Have I ever worked so hard in my life?

-The answer is no.

After this week I will never look at mothers the same way again. Holy cow y'all. Its non-stop all day, from the second your feet hit the ground & when they are your kids it NEVER ends. There is always something else to do as far as the home goes (&...uh, Im not even really doing it all, ha!).

My heart has been softened & my eyes opened...except right now they are closing under the weight of tiredness.
