Do you feel like you are being tested all over the place? 2+2 does not equal 4! 


I am proud to say that I was a stay-at-home mom — it brought me so much joy and heartache. I gave it 100% and I don’t want to feel ashamed or stigmatized for the fact that I decided for me it was more important to stay home. 


We all have to make our own individual decisions and make them with our spouse or partner. 


My belief that Harrison Butker was an amazing husband and father speaking to college graduates about the importance of the stay-at-home mom. He had a lot of backlash but let's face it, it had to be said! 


Life is hard enough and to think you are judged by whether or not you stay home with your children. I felt that it was a privilege for me to be able to be with my children when they were growing up. It was really hard at times and I didn’t have the money or resources like our neighbors but I did my best. It was my choice and I don’t think I need to feel badly for that choice. 


Right and wrong….. You aren’t crazy! It is just all of that Noise…


Here is the link for Kenny Chesney’s song and the lyrics:

Wreckin' balls, downtown construction

Bottles breakin', jukebox buzzin'

Cardboard sign says "The Lord is Comin', Tick, Ticktock"

Rumors turn the mills back home

Parkin' lot kids with the speakers blown

We didn't turn it on but we can't turn it off, off, off


Sometimes I wonder how did we get here

Seems like all we ever hear is


Noise

Yeah we scream, yeah we shout 'til we don't have a voice

In the streets, in the crowds, it ain't nothin' but noise

Drownin' out all the dreams of this Tennessee boy

Just tryna be heard in all this noise


24 hour television gets so loud that no one listens

Sex and money and politicians talk, talk, talk

But there really ain't no conversation

Ain't nothin' left to the imagination

Trapped in our phones and we can't make it stop, stop this


Noise

Yeah we scream, yeah we shout 'til we don't have a voice

In the streets, in the crowds, it ain't nothin' but noise

Drownin' out all the dreams of this Tennessee boy

Just tryna be heard in all this noise


Every room, every house, every shade of noise

All the floors, all the walls, they all shake with noise

We can't sleep, we can't think, can't escape the noise

We can't take the noise, so we just make


Noise

Yeah we scream, yeah we shout 'til we don't have a voice

In the streets, in the crowds, it ain't nothin' but noise

Drownin' out all the dreams of this Tennessee boy

Just tryna be heard in all this noise


All this noise

Can't take the noise

Can't take the noise

Can't stand the noise
