We're all still there. Like you, I adore my kids. I looked around at women who were giving and giving and realized they were paying a heavy price. I decided that there is a limit to what we owe our children and there is also a minimum that we owe to ourselves. Once I got that figured out, some days still being better than others, there was a lot more mutual respect in the household. Pam, we’ve all been there. We’re all still there.

I work and have 2 young kids (2 and 4) and a husband that is in business for himself and he travels a lot. I am struggling with finding time for me--often surfing the net is my "quality time" which is bad. I balance an intense love of my childre with some intense anger and resentment that I have to do everything all the time. There were sections of this entry that I really need to take to heart--for the sake of my children and my marriage. Thank you for this. Love this.
