Dear diary, I am tired but we move!!
This has been a very trying week. Moving to a new place with Panda is a little rougher than I thought. Trust me, it is great being in a new home and being an adult. It is the adjusting and moving forward that kinda gets hard, but thank God for the brothers I have.
It isn’t all so bad. Every night,
the man I live with and I sit and talk. We talk for hours, sometimes until both
our eyes get heavy. Honestly, he gives me what I never knew I needed…companionship.
The life of a stay at home mom gets a little lonely at times. It is worse now
that I have to be a mom 24/7 so having someone around to share details of the
day with is a blessing. Anyway, the man is my brother so the companionship
feels safe and advice from him hits harder than a ton of bricks. He doesn't know this but is one of my favourite part of the day!!

Faith was restored today. Being a full time stay at home mom is time consuming, energy draining and mentally messes one up. I find myself constantly arguing with someone who can’t even pronounce my name correctly, like the audacity to raise your voice at me but can’t even say Rethabile. Children are brave shame. Anyway, today we spent the day with my cousin/best friend/ partner in everything. He calmed me down after I went on a rant about the difficulties of my new life, gave me ice cream and the thing he did that touched me the most was him playing with Panda. As a single mom, seeing the men in my life play such active roles in Panda’s life reminds me that I am not alone. It really does take a village to raise a child and I am honestly grateful for my brothers, Bongani and Phomolo.
OH, AND PANDA CONFIDENTLY POOPED IN THE TOILET!! IT'S A WIN FOR ME
Well I guess that is it from this week. I cant wait to see what the new wee has in store for me...I might do something crazy and go get my husband.
Love, Rethabile
The Stay at Home Mom
P.S May you always find joy in the things you do, people you see and in the words you say
