The Kind Of Mom I Want To Be

Lately, I've been struck with the discrepancy between the kind of mom that I want to be and the kind of mom that I am. today. right now. Because who I am today . . . is who I am. Who I want to be inside my idealistic brain is not actually who I am.

I want to be the kind of mom who:

1. gets away on girls weekends SANS kiddos - soul rejuvenation
2. gets away on regularly scheduled dates with the husbuddy
3. reads her bible and prays every morning to start the day
4. exercises almost every day
5. cooks and eats really healthy (but delicious) foods
6. takes her kids on awesome and exciting adventures
7. teaches her kids stuff

Ok, so after writing that stuff down, I now realize that most of that stuff is just about me as an individual, and I just need to pull it together, regardless of my mom-ness. Hmm, interesting!
