Single Parenthood

All I can say is whew! I don't believe I have ever been this tired. I now have two full-time jobs. I sometimes wonder how I’m still going. My son is almost four months old. Time is just flying by and it seems as though I don’t have any time to just sit back and relax. I treated myself to a movie last Saturday night. (We won’t talk about how expensive it was in this entry) It was a nice outing but I couldn’t help thinking about all the stuff I still needed to do the whole time I was out. I’m know there are some things that I still need to get together so that I may find some order in my life, but I’m slowly working towards that goal… to have order.
It good to just talk to those that truly listen, hear a few encouraging words and get back to my jobs. Kids grow up so fast and it truly amazes me. It’s seems like yesterday I was feeling David kick and turn in my enormous belly. LOL! Now he’s holding up his head, grabbing and touching things, smiling, laughing, and trying his best to converse with me. Sometimes I just want to cry because I’m so tired and he’s wide awake and I don’t have the energy to do all the things I want to do with him. People tell me on the regular that it will get better. I can only pray that this is true and just keep going.
