The grass isn't always greener

Do you ever find yourself wanting someone else's life?....I know I sure have.....I wish I could be a stay at home mom....not worry about having to bring in a paycheck to help support our family......or one of those mom's who makes motherhood look easy making all those fun crafts from pinterest or awesome dinners.....or seeing other families or people who get to travel

But then talking to my best friend over it awhile back.....you can't just have all the good stuff you see on the outside you have to have all the bad stuff you don't see as well....you never know fully what is happening in someone else's life....someone else's house...you may know 90% of your friends life but you will not know everything.....the only people who know everything that happens behind closed doors is you and your family you live with....

After that talk I have accepted the life I was given....and I am happy with it....there are ups and downs like everyone has....but I can honestly say that I love the life that I am living....I am thankful for the family that I have in it....and the friends who are apart of it as well....knowing that the grass isn't always greener on the other side makes you enjoy what you have even more!
