"But, Honey you're very Satisfying to me"

Well i just had to share this..

Why as women, mothers, wives, friends so hard on ourselves.. why do we constantly strive for perfection??

I wouldnt say i am constantly striving to be perfect.. but i do find that I am hard on myself and i dont always quite feel satisfied .. with who i am, as a mother and wife, as a friend, as a homemaker, as a photographer, as a member of the church, in my callings..

This week.. has for me be a long one, ( with Elias being so sick and all) my patience has been going....and i have pondered

alot about what i really want and who i want to be..

The other night when Elias was freaking out about something, as he has been like this week.. i just broke down.. i needed to
escape and i felt like i was a bad mom for getting upset..

I said to Jer " i just cant do everything.. and when i try i'm just not satisfied..

Jeremy responds.. (as a good husband) " Rachelle, You dont have to do everything, at least not all at once".. "and you

know what,"You're very satisfying to me..if that counts!". Of course this made me feel better as i laughed.. thanks honey!


At least i know i am satisfying to someone.. Thanks Babe! I love you..

Anyways hopefully i am not the only one that has "moments" like this...

Awe Rachelle, you are not the only one who feels like that! When I went back to work I felt like that all the time! We just need to give ourselves a break sometimes!
