I have another weekend free-A took E away for the weekend and I’m home, free to do as I wish. When this happens, I realize exactly how much of my identity is tied into being E’s mother.
I love being E’s mom and realize it’s what I do with most of my days now, of course it would be a huge part of my identity. But I don’t want it to be the only part. I am an avid reader, love to craft, spend time with my friends…but I think that I get to do one of those things a day I am lucky. It’s usually reading as I have NO energy lately to be up running about doing other things. But I still yearn for more ‘me’ time. But I’m coming to the conclusion that there’s just not enough hours in the day for as much ‘me’ time as I’d like.
So I’ll take these weekend excursions that I have all the time to do what I want…even ponder my indentity.
