As much "me" time as I often say I want or need, I highly doubt years from now I will look back on this time and wish I would have had more "me" time or more "leave me alone, i deserve to have more sleep" time. Instead, I can almost guarantee that I will look back and wish I would have had more time on the floor playing with my baby, acting like a fool to get him to laugh, reading and singing and dancing... more of anything that would give me more time and more memories with my boy. I need to continually remind myself of that, especially in the {many} moments that it is so easy to be selfish and think I deserve more "me" time.
It's no longer about me, and I'm totally fine with that.

Such a great reminder... I may not have any little ones yet, but its still good to remember anytime that you share your life with someone else.
