I'm not perfect...

You ever feel like you aren't doing a good enough job being everything your kids need?.. 
Lately I have been feeling like there aren't enough hours in the day..  It seems like nothing ever gets done..  The house is always a mess, laundry is always overflowing, kids fighting... It's crazy.. By the time I get home home from work and pick up the kids at 2 different schools and cook dinner and clean it up..  Im so tired and housework gets pushed aside.. and then when the weekend comes all I wanna do is relax... I need to get more organized and get the kids helping out more.. 
Sometimes I feel like I'm failing them because they are so spoiled and starting to show signs of being brats if you will..  It makes me so upset..  I want them to take care of their things and have good attitudes and appreciate what they have and respect me and know how hard I try and give them the things they need and want.. being a parent is hard and nothing can prepare you for it..  I only hope that at the end of the day...  the bad days when I'm yelling at them to clean up their messes and the good days when things seem to run smoothly..  that they will know in their hearts that mommy does love them and that I'm trying my best to do a good job but I'm not perfect...

Sorry for the rant folks... now off to fold the laundry piled high on the living room couches... there is a pile on each couch and chair. :/
