As CR and I were chatting and playing a game the other day, he could not sit still. Every pause to take a turn at Memory, he matched his focused moment with a series of manic moves - it ranged from lying on his back, to jumping off the couch, to doing a little dance to music playing in his head - it was fascinating to me. I simply imagined myself, as an adult, behaving in the same manner while having a conversation with another adult...I would be labeled as manic, or worse, flat-out crazy.
It must be nice to be able to be a little nuts, and smilingly have it passed off as simply being a kid...
I am a SAHM who has managed to keep my working feet wet while staying home to raise our daughter and two sons. I have a long history of Marketing experience, which has allowed me to contract with my former employer, and most recently with a non-profit - along the way, I also fulfilled a passion of mine with the ultimate job - I am a cross-country and track coach for a nearby all-boys private school. As much as I love the independence that work brings, all of the working roles in my life pale in comparison to being a mom. Our oldest son is five our daughter is two, and our most recent addition the Moo is five months old - with an amazing supportive husband and a not-so-terrible-five-and two-year-old and a new baby, I really can't complain, my life is pretty good.
