It is just not cool....

Well I am starting this blog that has been on my mind for a while.
I find myself sitting here on a Saturday night gazing at a computer screen in the attempt to control my desire to strangle some children as I type out the inner confessions of a stay at home mom.
I am beginning my confessions with three children that call me mom. Their ages are 8 (9 in 26 days), 6 and 2, and to complicate their ages I have a boy, that is all boy, surrounded by his two sister that despite my best efforts are very girlie and can not stand his boyish antics.
Well my confession tonight is that my dearest, who works long hours during the week aka leaving me for long hours outnumbered three to one, got a call at quarter to 7 this evening to come and hang out with some friends.
"You should go" was my response.
Little did I think that he was going to be leaving 15 min later while all the children were still up.
"YOU ARE LEAVING NOW, I thought that you would at least wait till the kids have gone to bed."
"Oh they are practically in bed you just have to send them there and if I waited till they were asleep than it would be like 9 a clock before I left, bye."

So here I find myself wishing that I had friends that called me to hang out Saturday night (oh yeah that's right all my friends have kids and have quiet nights in on Saturday night) so that I could leave my beloved children and be an absolute and only an adult (not a mom which is far different from an adult) for oh maybe 4 or 5 hours.
So begins my confessions of a stay at home mom who loves this part in her life but every so often wishes for sanity and a few hours off. So to all the dearest that care.... It is just not cool to leave a stay at home mom on Saturday night BEFORE the kids are asleep to go and hang out with your buddies.
