Life in the Fast Lane

Well here I am, sitting on my couch, surrounded with things to do; and I'm starting a blog. I'm in the midsts of moving and I decide now is a good time to start a blog. I guess I've figured out by now that there is never a good time for anything, so why not now. 


So I guess here is the break down, I named this Mother Cubed because that is what I am, a mother of three. A mother of three boys! They are loud, messy, ruin everything, drive me crazy, and the best things that ever happened to me. None have been planned, none came at a great time, but they all are amazing and the reason I do everything I do now. I run myself to the bone and never have time for anything as I am either at home cleaning and being mom, at school in class working towards becoming a nurse, or at work as a CNA. I am very busy. Everyone looks at me with wide eyes and mouths open when I tell them I am a working mom that is also going to school. My house is not perfect, my hair and make-up is not always done, and I don't get a shower as often as I would like. None of it matters. What matters is my boys are happy, they have food, they have a home, and they have clothes. The thing that scares me about my schedule and life is when my kids are older are they going to understand why mom was always studying? Why she was at work every weekend? Will they understand that it was all for them, and I didn't tell them I needed to be left to study because I wanted them away but because I only wanted the best for them? 


Someday I hope that when I'm done with all the school they will look at me and say it. Say mommy, I know you sacrificed a lot for me. You gave up your free time to study, and your fancy clothes for mine, and your favorite nights out so you could watch cartoons with me. Thank you for that.
