The Best Daughters Ever

Let me just say that I am not biased. I’m just about to say the truth – I have the best daughters ever. I seriously do not know how I will survive my day-to-day challenges here at home and with Ziggy without them. They are forever running around, doing their chores and helping me with their baby brother. It makes me feel guilty since it’s the summer season and they should be either resting or doing fun stuff outside. That’s why I keep on researching for other activities they can do, especially this coming Easter Sunday. I really hope we can go to the easter egg hunting event I wanted to go to.

Anyway, today was such a hard day for me. Though I really tried my best to let go of some of the chores so that I could rest, it’s really not enough. I was able to nap for two hours, imagine that, (thanks to the very tired but understanding and gracious hubby, who just came home from work. I know, I have the best hubby too!). But I still feel tired and sleepy. It didn’t help that Ziggy became cranky again just earlier tonight. It took me 3 hours to get him to sleep. All that time, my girls were around doing everything they could to make things easier for me. They didn’t even complain even when I asked them to do something when they were in the middle of watching The Princess and the Frog on TV. It makes me feel more guilty for yelling at them when they weren’t even at fault. My exhaustion from everything is getting the best of me. Still, they endure it without complaining and continue to shower me with love letters and drawings almost everyday.

After I put Ziggy down earlier, and after a mini breakdown I had in my bedroom, I went over to them and apologized, hugged and kissed them and told them how thankful I am for them helping me and that I love them. They just hugged and kissed me back and said “It’s okay, Mommy”. 

I have the best daughters ever.
