I thought I had it bad…

This woman has to fly an Air Force Helicopter with her five-year-old. How crazy is that? Makes me feel bad for complaining about my children asking for cheese when I check my email.

omg. I heard that in the car the other morning. Can you imagine talking to her in a mom’s group.
“Ugh. I’m so tired. I had to write last night till midnight cause my kids wouldn’t go to sleep”
“Really? I’m tired because my daughter wanted to talk all night during 2 air raids. Then she screamed for like, an hour after we took on enemy gunfire. Took another hour to calm her down before I even landed the chopper.”

Hello, fellow WrAHM. I gave you two awards on my blog today, FYI.

Wow. Really makes me stop and reconsider before I complain about lack of writing time.
