Weekends are those times that I get to sleep in because there is no school for my daughter and I don't take my son to the daycare, some weekends are stressful so much, and someone would just sleep for a long time especially when it had rained the previous night, I love weekends because I will able to have a good sleep.
Reason is because from Monday to Friday, I have to wake up very early to prepare what my kids will take to school, especially my daughter, she closes from school around 4pm and I don't like her going to school with out something good, so whenever I have the money to prepare a good meal , I make sure to take u in time, and you know as a mother when you are awake you cannot go back to sleep as that would make one seem lazy when you know there is a family to feed.
My weekends always centered around me waking up as late as 10am, by waking up this time , I know I would have gotten enough rest that would last me the whole day, and the my waking up late varies, some weekends I always have a lot to do like washing clothes, my kids school bags and uniforms, washing their shoes and etc
And some weekends I wake up early would be because my son wants something to eat and so it wouldn't be nice to sleep in when the kids are hungry. Though I will have the thoughts to go back to sleep after I have made something for them to eat, but that's a lie, it isn't possible, when I am awake that is the end, the next thing I go on to do is chores.
Since I don't like a dirty place, I would just start cleaning, most times I will be very free, especially when the kids are on holiday and they have to visit a relative, "I would sleep like there's no tomorrow" it is during this times that I enjoy my weekend sleep in more, because, there is no one to make me stand up, I will sleep till I am contended.
Yes I do enjoy this time, because it is the only break time I can get from the kids and house chores, there would be times where I wouldn't want to sleep but be at work delivering one thing or the other.
The stress I go through everyday during the week a enough reason for me to have enough rest of my own during the weekends, sometimes I do have it and most of the times I don't get to have it, this is because there would always be responsibilities to look out for during the weekends and I can't overlook, let's just say that there is time for everything, so it's not easy though.
Being a mother has a it perks and... But we remain strong no matter what.
We still get to do things we want to do during the weekend, even if it's two weekends in a month or two months then it's still enough.
