Is anyone elses days like mine?

Is anyone elses days like mine?

I have a 9 yr old stepson and a 11 month old baby. I get up, i get everyone ready, i walk my stepson to school, i spend most of my day, till my husband comes home at 5, cleaning, washing, dusting etc, looking after my beautiful baby boy, picking up my stepson from school, doing finances, planning, making dinner, making sure the house is beautiful, spending quality time with my boy, putting them to bed, and its only about now at 8.40pm i get to sit down and do what i want to do till i go to bed around 11.30pm and do it all again! lol Just wondered if this is what most mothers do or do you do more/less and how do you feel bout this?

I too have the same type of life, I have 4 kids 10 - 2. But I make sure the house is clean and nice but I don't go crazy because I want to have a life too. Women need fellowship with other women and ya know what at the end of this life I don't think I would say I wish I would have dusted more instead of spending time with friends and family.
