absolutely.
i have been wanting and wishing for so many things. not in the way ada really wants the snow white barbie doll with the tweeting bird sitting on her finger, it much greater than that. it is greed.
yearning for a new home, not an old rental house. (oh, and by the way, i found the perfect one! just ask me about it!)
yearning for reza to be home more.
yearning for a great job opportunity to fall in place.
wishing bedtimes would come sooner and sooner
wishing whining would silence.
wishing i was a more patient (and younger and cooler and everything in the likes - if you really want to know the truth.)
i have no reason for posting this aside from the hope, that by sharing, i will stop being so greedy and envious and want-ie all the time. maybe someone will repremand me, slap my hand, and tell me to stop (hello mom!). i have so many things to be thankful for, i don't need anymore. right?
It's not greed, it's exhaustion! And we all need an outlet - if yours is day dreaming, then dream away! But I do know what you mean. If you're guilty, so am I! Patience. Always striving for more. xoxo
ReplyDeleteI feel you my dear...isn't it funny how even as adults we can't wait for big things in the future to happen!
ReplyDeleteGoals, not greed. These are goals you have and you are working towards them and you're so close to reaching so many of them! You are an amazing mother and despite the sleep deprivation, the exhaustion, the lack of patience, you will ALWAYS cherish the time you took to be with your children no matter how trying it may be. I tell myself this everyday I'm blue. BTW, LOVE the Ada photo montage. It is unbelievable how much she's changed in just three years! xoxo
