I used to think vacations were just a chance to go somewhere new, goof off, get away or just spoil yourself a bit. I have a whole new outlook on the subject now.
Now that I have two kids, and my life is crazy and hectic, I have figured out why I think most people take vacations. I will really respect and appreciate every vacation I have from here on.
I find myself living in a world now fully consumed with chores, errands, bills, kids, relationship stuff, school, and so much more. It has gotten to the point where I am so sick of hardly having a moment to breathe. Currently, I am sick of stressing over money. I have come to get very annoyed with always having something to do, someone to please, or somewhere to go. Not that I don't want to do these things.... I've just been spread way to thin in the last two months.
I understand now, that a few days away from the madness can really give one a chance to relax, step away, and reconnect with what matters most. Family. Being with those you love, and not having to run around like a chicken with its head cut off. This is something extremely valuable. Something extremely important for our own sanity. All moms should get government paid time off throughout the year. It would make the whole world a better place. :)
