On Saturday, I met up with friends to celebrate a friend’s birthday. I am really happy I decided to go out that night, but I almost talked myself out of going. I was feeling little down about the fact that one of my boys wasn’t eating enough and I wasn’t in the mood to celebrate. After dilly-dallying in the apartment for nearly an hour though, I decided to go. The kids were eating beautifully and they were in good hands with my mom, grandma and sister.
Seeing my friends that night really helped to relieve my stress. We hugged, we laughed and we talked. We also looked at pictures of the kids. When you’re a parent, you’ll always have a reason to worry and while it’s important to pay attention to potentially serious issues, managing your stress level is as important.
Now unfortunately, our warm and fuzzy evening almost turned into a scene from Mob Wives but luckily cooler heads prevailed. Hahaha, I’m just kidding. That would never happen in a million years. See you next time ladies!
