It’s a Tough Job…But Somebody’s Gotta Do It
And if you’re like most moms, you wouldn’t trade it for the world. You’re probably thinking…what in the world is Alice talking about. Nope I’m not talking about changing dirty diapers, cleaning up projectile vomit that made it’s way across the kitchen to heights you can only reach with a chair, or any of the other gross things that happen.
What I’m talking about is being a mama! As moms, we’re tired (that term just isn’t enough and exhausted really doesn’t reach the level I’m aiming for either) and we invest so much into our “job”.
Over at the forum, we’re talking about how being a mom can be so hard, but is really the only job that we can truly say is worth every single bad thing that happens in the process. There are so many hard things that we as moms have to deal with but we do it willingly and the scariest part is we know HOW we deal with it is what will shape our little ones into the adults they are destined to grow into.
For instance, I find one of the hardest parts of being a mom is the discipline. We know it’s not easy and we don’t like doing it, but it’s necessary. So we do it even if it does hurt for us to see our children upset or heart broken because we tell them they can’t do something. We do it because we know it’s what’s best for them and will teach them and it’s our job. In the long run the rewards for things like this are priceless.
How about you, what do you find the hardest part of being a mama is? What makes it easier for you to deal with the tough times?

Discipline is by far the hardest -and one of the most important parts of being a mom. If we don't, then our children will never learn the correct way to behave. Thankfully, my husband and I are in agreement on discipline - that can be a nightmare if parents aren't on the same page.
