2) Answer this question (by commenting on this post):
Would you rather know everything that is going to happen in your life as a mother, or take it as it comes?! And WHY?!
The winner will be announced soon!!! YAY!!!
No way! I don't want to know. There is no way I could have ever imagined everything that has happened this far in my life as a mom. I'm glad I didn't know everything this far. So I'll be happy to take the rest, the ups and downs, as they come!
ReplyDeleteUMMM....NO NO NO...I worry enough as is, if I knew of every little thing that was going to happen to them I would NEVER enjoy them. I know myself well enough if I knew how things would go I would try to control it so in my crazy head I would try to make their life perfect....and all the while I would never have time to enjoy them. Plus, when all the good things in life happen with them we will enjoy it more. Cute Aprons, and great question.
ReplyDeleteI would not want to know what is coming because I believe that we learn some of life's most important lessons during those moments of surprise. How we react, what we say, and how we feel at those moments, whether they be good or bad, help us to become better mothers and better prepare us for the future.
ReplyDeleteWhy in the world would I want to know everything that is going to happen, I have enough stuff on my plate to deal with as of right now. If I knew everything else I would not be loosing my hair in the shower because it would all be gone. I would be the lady in the corner mumbling incoherent things and rocking back and forth, while life went on happening. Nope I like things the way they are. The small doses of reality are enough for me now and always will be. The overwhelming future would drive me to the mental ward for sure.
ReplyDeleteBTW thanks for the amazing blog. I really enjoy it and Sunny, I'm with you I have that hair that has a mind of its own and I LOVE Aquage, but I also use it on my curly hair it keeps it from frizzing and make it shine, still with that amazing look and smell.
So I know that I can't win this Giveaway, but I just have to say, I'm kind of on the fence with this one. Not just to be the devils advocate (ok maybe a little), but really would it be THAT bad to know? I think it would bring me a little peace of mind and maybe prepare me for extreme trials. It may help me relax a little bit and realize that everything will turn out. Maybe if you knew what would happen you could make a different decision, like some kind of future changer or something (probably a whole other topic)and change the outcome...Anyway, just a few of my thoughts...weird I know
ReplyDeleteI went back and forth on this one. I would love to see and know all the success and happiness that my kids will have (and I would even keep it secret-because I am good at that) but I am much better at handling the trials as they come instead of worrying about them before they come.
ReplyDeleteIf I know myself at all... I will take it as it comes!! Some days are all too much to have to deal with, let alone knowing, and "planning" on the execution of the rest of my life!
ReplyDeleteI knew being a mom/mother would be hard... but I didn't know it would be THIS hard! Good thing they are worth it!!
oh, shoot! i feel like a mcdonald's employee, banned from monopoly...or like the kid of a radio dj, no free concert tickets! such.cute.aprons. and also...there are some things i'd like to know ahead of time, and some things that are better left as surprises :)
ReplyDeleteI will take it has it comes...why would I want to burden myself with knowing what is going to happen...I wounldn't cuz it will drive me crazy. And if I'm going crazy then I'm making my family crazy and that is not good ;-) lol
ReplyDeleteI would much rather take things as they come. I wouldn't want to ruin any surprises!! (And with kids, there are LOTS of surprises!)
