I remember the first day that Aaron and I first moved in together. We had finished unpacking for the day, and I had made us dinner. I remember I made spaghetti, salad, and french bread. We sat down, and I began to have this feeling,the "This is it" feeling. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't necessarily sad, but I realized that this would be my routine for the next 100 years of my life. (Yes, I'm living to be 100 :) )
Fast forward 4 years, and I this feeling reared its head once again. I had to shower and I had both kids by myself. I first had to lock in the kids in, via baby gate. Every minute I had to slide the door open to ask if everyone was okay. At one point I saw Alexis legs crossed, feet on the bed, watching Thomas upside down. Jeffrey was fighting with the dog, etc. It was not a moments peace. I got out feeling very stressed and relieved at the same time.
I used to think that the only alone time I had was in the shower. Now that I'm a Mommy, 'alone time' is non-existent.
