PYHO: Just shut the F#@$! up. (Warning - foul language)

I am so tired of the moms who seemingly only complain about being a mom and their kids.

We all have our bad days.  We all complain sometimes.  We all wish we just had one fricking day, hell, one fricking minute to get out of mom mode.

But the moms who all they ever do is complain?

Shut the fuck up.

I have a friend who complains about how hard it is to be sick and take care of her kids.  This same friend complains every time her son doesn't pee or poop in the potty, every time he wakes up in the middle of the night, every time her kids do anything.  Sometimes it's vague.  Sometimes she rants about how her husband doesn't do anything, and why can't SHE just relax.

Another friend posts on FB 85% of the time complaining about her kids.  How she has a whiny two year old.  Why oh why do the kids sleep in when she has to work but when she's home they wake up early? 

I'm tired of it.  You are a mother.  You have been given pretty much the greatest  and most difficult job in the world.  It's relentless.  It's 24/7.  It's not always appreciated, it's unforgiving.  It's not always glamorous.    It's frustrating at times, disheartening at times, and sometimes it's just fucking hard. 

But it's also the most amazing thing in the world.  It's sloppy kisses and little hugs.  It's "Love you Mommys" and "One more song please"?  It's giggles and tears.  It's kissing the boo-boos to make them better.  It's tucking them in at night.  It's watching them learn, grow, and become who they are to be before your very eyes.  It's never having clean pants, never having a clean house, and never being able to just get up and go.

All the not so awesome things about being a mom don't even come close to measuring to the amazing wondergful things about being a mom.  There are women in this world, who all they want in life is to become a mother.  They would be sick every day for a year if it meant they got to have a child who called them Mommy.  They would wake up every two hours for 5 years if it meant they got to get baby cuddles every single day. These women?  Think you are an asshole when all you do is complain about how hard being a mom is.  Not that they don't think it's hard. But not much in life that's rewarding is easy.

So the next time you want to complain about being a mom, stop and think.  How many hugs and kisses did you get today? How many "I love you Mommy!" and how many giggles did you hear?  And appreciate the fact that some of the amazing women in this world will never get to experience that and YOU DO.  So shut the fuck up about your bitching, and be grateful you've been given the best job in the fucking world.
