A mother of boys

I was just looking at a catalog and saw this quote:
"Mothers of little boys work from son up to son down."

I have heard this saying before but now I really understand. I'm tired...this 3rd trimester of my pregnancy is starting to slow me down. It's hard for me to have this nesting instinct and want to get so much done yet the simplest things make me so tired! 8 1/2 more weeks...will I last? I have to...mom's don't get a day off.

My friend Kristen, mother to 5 boys, has this hanging up in her house. It is so true.

I know how you feel with the wanting to nest interfering with the wanting to sleep. Darn maternal instincts.

Weren't both your boys born at least a couple of weeks early? Maybe you'll keep with that pattern and you'll be done in about 6 weeks instead.

Your boys are your "son"shine.
