There are women

There are women who never run out of 'personal' products. I am not one of them.

I am a woman who is grateful that all her parts still work, no matter how inconvenient it may be.

There are women who always have a well balanced dinner on the table. I am not one of them.

I am a woman who almost always ensures her family eats at least one meal together every day, despite crazy schedules. And yes, that means sometimes we have cereal for dinner and leftover mac-and-cheese for breakfast.

There are women who's children are always color coordinated clothing when they walk out the door. I am not one of them.

I am a women who's children know it is okay to play in whatever they have on, and that their individuality should always shine.

There are women who's children always have clean hands and faces and always sit quietly in church. I am not one of them.

I am a woman who's children aren't afraid to get dirty. Who know that in order to find the worms, you might have to eat a little dirt. And they will know that it is a good thing to make "joyful noise unto the Lord" (or buddah, or mother earth, or whoever)

There are women who never roll their eyes when their husbands say goofy things in public. I am not one of them.

I am a woman who loves her goofy, brilliant, adorable, honest and trustworthy husband.

I am a woman who has to remind herself daily that I am the woman I want to be, most of the time.
