I've been feeling like the "real me" is this girl who wants to be alone: no husband or kids. And the thing is, I'm crazy for my husband and kids. It's some messed up thinking, fo' sho'.<br/><br/>And I do feel like the parts I gave up were forced upon me. I certainly didn't feel like I had to. It just happened. No choice.

I am still trying to figure out how to bring back the things I used to do and be, but I know I need to work on it. Otherwise, I'm not a happy mommy! wow, I’m so glad I’m not alone.

I have run into moms who grew up with no other aspirations than to be wives and mothers. Because of that, they don't know how to be good wives and mothers because they never really figured out who they were. <br/><br/>Along these lines, I have always loved the talk in the June 1992 Ensign, called "Celebrating Womanhood" by Marie K. Hafen!! It is wonderful!<br/><br/>It is all a balancing act! I have pondered this very topic many, many times!!
