I feel like I'm always asking this question: "To Stay or To Go".
- To stay home or to go run errands
- To stay home or to go to the gym
- To stay home or to go to an event
and on and on...
Why such a laborious process and constant question, you ask? Motivation or stamina on my part, temperaments on the girls part. Their is also their health status, weather conditions, timing, and many other considerations. These are the tough decisions as a mom :) Indeed there are much harder, but this one feels tough in the moments when I make the wrong choice.
Since the girls were 9 months, I've found sanity in getting out of the house to run errands or go play somewhere with them on an almost daily basis. I've really needed to get creative to make outings free! One friend of mine has impressed me with her dedication to visiting parks this summer with her four and one year olds. Others are consistently setting playground playdates.
Another struggle is keeping the girls and myself occupied when we stay home for the day. It's not for lack of toys! The girls minds are growing and expanding so much that they prefer to be learning and trying new things.
Still deciding for today, how about you?
