Do you every feel like you are a failure as a mom? I do. Often. Like right now.
My 6 year old is pouty
My 8 year old has an attitude
My 3 year old does not seem to have a pair of ears-- but she does have a death wish for climbing on EVERYTHING
My 4 year old is so mercurial I can't keep up
My 8 month old needs to be touching me at all times
The house is a mess even though I spend countless hours picking up.
It is so humiliating to admit this but I just want to be alone-- even on Thanksgiving. I just want to be alone. I am overstimulated and I need some time to decompress.
So right now I feel like I am failing as a mom and it is pretty rotten.

Oh, my goodness, you are not a failure, you just need some "me time!" I hope you get some soon!
Have a happy Thanksgiving! If you are celebrating with family, maybe you'll get a chance to go out for a walk...by yourself!
Thank you so much for stopping by for my SITS day!
You're definitely not failing, but I totally understand feeling overwhelmed and overstimulated. I often feel that way and I only have one!
I totally relate, but we (as mothers) should be kind to ourselves. It's a tough job.
Happy (belated) Thanksgiving. I'm Canadian so that's extra belated, since ours is in October. :)
