First, let me say I love my child with all my heart but having some time for self-care is definitely a struggle with a two-year-old, a cat and a dog. I value this precious time as I watch him grow. Every breath, every step, every laugh and smile. Nurturing every tear and kissing every “boo boo.”
No cable takes away any interaction I have with adults because it’s utilized for screen share with the TV for my child’s education programs. Uggh, I get up at 4am just for some mindfulness before he awakes. That time is basically all I have.
Appreciate the small things in life. “Me” time will come and then I’ll be wishing he needed me more.
