It Takes Two!

This has been a BUSY week! We have went to Fern Bank, the Mall of Georgia, and Walmart. In all I think Walmart was the worst! I can not believe that it is already July and August is getting closer and I will have to go back to work. :( I am NOT looking forward to that at all. I have so been enjoying my mommy/Tanner time. Through this week, I have earned a new found respect for single moms. I don't know how they do it.
              Seeing that my husband works odd hours and sometimes has to pull 10 hour shifts, I get a taste of what it is like for single moms. Those days are so hard. It makes me really look forward to the days that Randall is either off or gets home earlier and we can spend "family time." Tanner ADORES his dad, and loves spending time with him. So not only is Tanner in a better mood, so is mommy!
              I honestly don't know what I would do with out my wonderful husband! Even though he is working right now, and I am not (Summer break) he still helps clean bottles, change diapers, or even folds some clothes! We definitely double team it a lot! I may give Tanner a bath while he gets is PJ's ready or Randall may play with Tanner while  I fix a bottle. Having two people there makes it so much easier. I know the days where its basically just Tanner and I, it is more stressful and tiring for me. Raising a child absolutely takes two! They say "it takes two to tango" well it takes two to raise kids, a MUCH harder task! ;)
            This week going to Fern Bank and the mall with friends or family while Randall was at work showed me the it is rough being a single mom without that help mate. I am so thankful that I have someone that is as devoted to my son as much as I am. My mom was  a single mom (because of divorce) for a few years with 2 kids!!  I don't know how she did it. She has my upper most respect, along with all other single moms out there. You most certainly deserve a reward for raising a child by yourself!
