Why I Keep Going
There are many times when being a mom and a step-mom feels like a thankless job. We cook food for the family, only to be told that it "tastes funny" or to remind kids for over an hour to eat their food and stop playing. We clean a room in the house, only for it to be messy within the next hour or less. We sweep and mop the floors, only for them to be muddy again within the same day. We budget the bills, only to have things come and blindside us that were not expected in the month’s budget. We do laundry, only for something to be worn for an hour and then thrown right back into the hamper.
