S.O.S. to my Sisters!

I have to be honest, sisters, I have been feeling overwhelmed with being a stay at home mom for the past month! I know I should suck it up, but you girls are amazing examples of stay at home moms and I am realizing that I don't know how you do it. I am so used to going into the office three days a week, and coming home to a clean house and happy kids (most of the time). I have been home with the kids and my project of a house now for a month, and just broke down last night to Cesar about how hard it has been! Don't get me wrong, it's all I've ever wanted. As a kid I saw how much Mom wanted to be there for us, and how it broke her heart to leave us, and ever since then my aspiration has been to be there for my kids and not work outside the home. I am realizing I should be careful what I ask for, because sometimes Heavenly Father gives it to me! :) I guess I've been feeling like a little 50's housewife, where my sole purpose in life is raising kids and cleaning house and cooking dinner and sewing little projects, and I need to get used to the different way I am receiving thanks for the the work I am doing. At work I would get praised for my work and effort, and there was always a smile and a pleasant "thank you" for a job well done. I put the same effort in at home and what thanks do I get? Another mess, another sink of dirty dishes, another temper tantrum or crying/whining from the kids, another poopy diaper, another day of feeling overwhelmed with this thankless job of being a mom. There are definitely moments where Maya will snuggle into my shoulder, or Rosie will tackle me with a hug and a kiss, and I am happier than I ever thought possible. I suppose I just struggle with making those small and fleeting moments sustain me in feeling thanked and fulfilled to give me the gusto to keep doing it all. Since I know it will be a while before we can get together I wanted to tap into the best network of amazing, loving moms I have: my sisters! Any advice you can give, I will soak it up...
