This picture could be the catalyst for one of two posts.
The first option is one where I write about how life is so busy and it’s important to let things like basic housekeeping slide sometimes in order to spend more quality time with your kids. It’s all about priorities. They are only young once, you’ll never get this time back. Really, what’s more important: a clean living room or playing Lego with your boys? We moms have to sacrifice our own pride in our homes in order to nurture these little people placed in our care.
This is not that post.
I’m going with the second option, or what I call “The Truth”.
It was Friday night, I had some shows to catch up on the PVR. Chips were consumed. M&Ms may or may not have been involved. I did a lot of socializing via my phone. It was too late to wake up the boys to get them to do it (something I intend to remedy today).
It really is all about priorities.

You’re a much nicer Mom if you don’t live only for them, don’t you think?
Some people define quality time differently. We are those people.
Yes, yes we are. The more I get to know you, the more I like you, Ricky.
