Part Time Single Momma

.... Or at least that is how it feels sometimes. The hubby's work schedule sucks, to say it nicely. It's all over the place and moves from days to nights all to often. I absolutely despise it.

We've talked about it alot lately. Before we had Khloe it wasn't as hard. It was never ideal, but it was definitely easier. Now that we have started our little family it is right there in the forefront. Kind of like the elephant in the room. We both hate him being away at nights and a few weekends every month. But he is a good man and is doing this for us. He sacrifies his time with us to give us everything, and more, than we could ever want and need.

Although I know this isn't true. And perhaps it's a bit selfish of me. When he is away I get a small taste of what it is like to be a single momma to a toddler. It's HARD. It holds more challenges than I thought possible. It definitely opens my eyes and gives me a whole new respect for those true life single ladies out there that are raising kids on their own. You ladies deserve an award. And multiple glasses of wine.

I cry and moan and throw momma tantrums all the time on this subject. I feel abandomed sometimes. BUT at the end of the day I love my husband. He is a good man who LOVES ME and our DAUGHTER. We are lucky and I know that in order to get where we REALLY want to be, sacrifices must be made. This is not forever.
