Beginning!!

I wanted to create this, not just for me but for many other women out there who are probably feeling like I am.

I am Georjana, 27 years young and I am a mother, wife, sister, aunt, daughter, cousin, niece, granddaughter. My most important title is a MOTHER. I have two adorable children, my oldest who is seven years young, and my youngest who is 9 months old. Both boys, both unique and different in their own littlest of ways.

I am a full-time student, work 30 hours a week Mon-Sat. I go to school Mon-Fri. I am a mother 24-7. I get asked a question a lot, and after being asked this question so many times I'm starting to wonder the same thing.

"How do you do it?"

my response is always, "Do what?"

What am I doing?

It seems routine to me by now, I mean I have been doing it for seven years what is a couple of months with an infant? I never sat down to think about HOW I DO IT, until recently when I dropped my 9 month old at the daycare they have for us at school. I got asked the same question again, "how do you do it?" I mean? isn't it mandatory to have that motherly instinct? to do so many different jobs all at once in a 24 hour or less day period? I mean doesn't everyone go to school, work, clean, cook, breastfeed, do homework, study, spend time with your significant other anyways?? is this something new?

At the end of a long work day, when I get home at midnight and need to study at least 2 hours for class I don't feel drained, I just feel sleepy and overwhelmed. Sometimes even hungry. As I sit at my dinner table pumping the night away while listening to my lectures, the only thing on my mind is 'how am I going to retain this information?', and 'will my baby drink his bottle at daycare tomorrow?' also sleep. Did I mention I love sleep?

So YOU, yes YOU reading this right now, (if you are) are you in my situation? and if so, how do YOU do it?

till the next post!

I have lots to tell :)
