  • Us Time

    This is a guest post from Fresh Mommy Blog.

    Some days, parenting leaves you looking like you could be the new poster child for abstinence, finding snot on your shoulder from who knows when and craving a shower after cleaning up a diaper blowout at the dining room table, one that has you gagging the entire time.

    But the beautiful teeter-tottter, the thing that always brings it full circle, is after the showers and baths, after the seat's been sanitized and wiped down a trillion times over and you're left looking not at the rag-a-muffin in the mirror but at the amazing soul you're holding in your arms, and the slate went and cleaned itself. 

    Today my littlest and I had a little "Us Time", and I stayed on the top of that teeter, breathing in the refreshing air of being high on life.  Clean slate I tell you, clean slate.

    What wipes the slate clean for you after a long hard day with children?

    I dont have kids yet, i am 15 weeks preggers... but I love us time with my beau.
    WE have date nite every couple of weeks and we are intimate (whether it be actual sex or just kissing and snuggling on the couch) everyday!
    It definitely helps a heap when you can feel good about you and what youre doing one day at a time.

I love it! Don't tell anyone. My favorite 'hats' to wear are being Mommy to a loved little one, Aliyah, and wife to Christopher, by very best friend. (Who shares his own words on life here, sometimes.) We live in our home state of Michigan, and mostly enjoy all the seasons. There's lots of play in our house, lots of pool time in the summer and travel is a big part of our lives. Even with just the four of us, (the fourth member of family being our kitten, Dolce) chaos in our house is a part of life, but we love it too. In reality, I do work as a spokesmodel for Mitsubish Motors during the Auto-Show season, so I end up traveling quite a bit. While I'm home, I'm a graphic designer, heavily involved in my church, and am fervently trying to become domesticated. This blog, here, is a journey w
