So tonight our family home evening lesson was and probably still will be about sharing cuz it's an important lesson to learn in life but...sometimes I find myself getting tired of sharing... for example, last night I got a cold glass of water and sat down after tornado-ing around the house cleaning so that my mind could think clearly, and just as I put my lips to the glass to take a drink my dear sweet Kate is tugging at my arm while holding her own sippy cup and saying "Drink, Drink" wanting some of mine. And at that moment I just wondered if there would ever be a day that I could have my own glass of water, or my own plate of dinner, or my own place to stand without a child standing on top of my feet, or to take my own shower etc etc...
This photo looks romantic and fun but seriously it's not all its cracked up to be,
I know this might sound selfish and I know you mothers can relate, but come on, is that too much to ask, or is our family night lesson supposed to be catered to me? Am I the one who needs to learn to share?

I'd like to go #1 or #2 without having a kid crying to come in. I'm like, you really don't want to come in here.
I miss you Rachee!

You were always a great sharing friend/cousin when you were little. I think I was too. I'm the same greedy mom as you are. What happened to us? I think my kids need to teach me a family home evening on sharing.
I dont think the sharing ever ends...but I think thats its okay to want it to end...if you know what I mean!
