I'm so very annoyed this morning. Between Joey, Hayden, and the cats. Joey has got to be the loudest person to get ready in the morning. Banging cabinets and drawers, putting the water on full blast, letting the alarm go off for a minute before shutting it off and then rolling back and forth sighing as loud as he can. Plus all of this wakes ( Read more... )

I too, struggle with the feeling of "i'm not doing anything with my life...blah, blah, blah". I can get depressed about it as well, IF I DWELL ON IT.

Trying to be the best mom i can be and knowing that i am doing my best in trying to raise two boys into men of God is what snaps me out of the depressing days. One day they will be adults living on their own. And it is my job for the next 18 years and even longer to make sure they are raised with a good head on their shoulders. Teaching them how to love others, and be compassionate, and thoughtful, and appreciative, kind-hearted, and responsible, and smart, and so on and so forth.

You are Hayden's MOM. YOU ALONE will probably have the most impact in his life bar none. More than his father, more than teachers, more than grandparents...etc. You have the most important job EVER. More important than lawyers, doctors, CEO's, etc. I know it doesn't seem that way when you're up half the night, and changing poopy diapers, and taking care of a sick baby, and cleaning the house and all that other stuff that we as mothers/wives (or in your case girlfriend) are expected to do, but IT MATTERS. And even when you feel like you're are the most under-paid, hardest working, under-appreciated, person in the whole world...it still matters. IT STILL MATTERS.

I encourage you to think about that every time the devil tries to plant thoughts in your head about how you're worthless and don't matter. Because that's who it is...the devil. He's trying to steal your joy and make you believe things that aren't true. And starting to believe those lies is what makes you feel depressed. Don't believe the lies...because that's what they are...lies. You probably think i'm crazy sitting here talking to you about the devil and whatnot, but it's true!

I hope this helps...at least a little bit....
