Recently I've seen a lot of the "e-cards" that are bashing being a SAHM.  Actually, it's not so much bashing as telling lies and spreading myths.  I believe there are several myths about being a mother and especially being a SAHM that are way to glamorized and annoying.  Obviously I can't touch on every myth but I'm going to go for the ones that bother me the most!



Why in the world does everyone think that all SAHM's are alcoholics?  Literally my desire to drink is about zero!  Much like drinking on the job in the "real world" it impairs my judgement and I wouldn't be capable of performing at my best.  Yes, I have the occasional glass of wine at night (well not now that I'm pregnant) but that's all!  I'm sure there are moms out there in the world that do drink and heavily at that but I'm not one of them and I don't know many (if any) that do.

These girls are my everything. They are what I live for everyday.  Everyday as a SAHM isn't the easiest or the most pleasant and some days I just want to escape but whether I'm gone for 5 minutes, 5 hours or 5 days there is a whole in my heart only they can fill until I'm back with them.  I'm proud to say that not everyone can do my job, it's hard work but it's the most rewarding job I've ever had!
