I am one of the million parents in this world and I feel like it can’t just be me that feels the way I do.  I am a 33-year-old mother of two boys, a 14 year old and a 2 year old. I am a woman who is strong, independent, a go getter, a doer, a provider, a nurse, a cook, a maid, a chauffeur…….well the list goes on and on.  I have been a parent for 14 years now and all of a sudden, it’s like I have lost my damn mind–anyone else?  I feel like I cannot get anything accomplished, my life is on hold, our family cannot move forward and I think to myself everyday “is it me?  Am I the only one who feels this way?”  I decided to put my thoughts and feelings into words in hopes that I can find other people who relate to me and what I am going through.  My title is fitting as I know it can’t just be me thinking and feeling what I do….. and then it never can just be me as a single person with no responsibilities.  So HELLO world! My name is Aileiah Clarke and parenting has made me lose my mind.  Want to join me?  Or have you already?
