[quote=Anonymous]I have a 3 year old & a 3 months old as well. I love them, but I am super tired & exhausting every day.  I am not a saint to be a well-tempered & attentive mom 24/7, so my house is messy, a lot of carry-outs, have to give tv to 3 year old for him to be quiet, sometimes yelling at my 3 year old for his behaviors, blah blah ..... I think overall I am a good mom because no matter how tiring I am, I would definitely make sure that both kids are fed, bathed, have clean clothing to wear etc.

But DH thinks that I am a good mother, not a good wife as before. He says our life is boring, no social life, no travel as others, no more couple times, and we don't do fun things as before. I tell him that paying 2 kids for daycare are already expensive, we are not planning for travel anytime soon. And, taking 2 kids to travel sounds like torture to me rather than vacation time. I don't even have time to take care of myself, and doing fun things look like luxury to me. Since I become a mom, my priority & attention all shift to my kids. Of course I admit I have changed, but what I can I do? I cannot please everyone. I can't wait both kids are getting older, like elementary school age. [/quote]
