It is said that the present is pregnant with the future. ~Voltaire
I like to think that I will be able to work very very hard for a very very short time and that then suddenly life will be magically easy. Presto Chango!
This is especially true when it comes to doing things for me. You know--like I'll find myself thinking that I only have to take care of myself for a little while longer and then I'll be a mom! Then it hits me that I am still gonna have to take care--if not more so than before! You know like exercise and interests and still being a growing person and adult...gosh that seems like a lot of work.
Does anyone else do this?

sometimes its hard to remember to take care of ourselves first, because once you're a mom, that seems to come first. but I have to remind myself a lot that in order to take care of him, I have to take care of me! (it doesn't always work, though.)
