Do you ever feel like you are doing your best and it's just not enough? I wish I had six more arms so I could take care of the needs of ALL my children.
I hate that Richard wants me to play games with him and so often I have to say, "Richard, you'll need to wait. I'm feeding the babies."
I hate that Audrey brings me books to read and I struggle to read them to her because I'm taking care of the babies.
If I'm not taking care of the babies, I hate that I am bothered that they want my attention because I'm finally doing something I want to do (like type on my blog).
I hate that so often one (or both) baby is crying because I'm feeding the other or finally doing something for my other children.
I guess we all feel that we should be able to do more than we realistically can.

I have those same feelings, and I just have one baby! You're doing amazing and hopefully this hard part will be over before you know it.
I am so sorry! I think that being a mom is riddled with feelings of guilt and inadequacy. You want to be perfect for your kids and often we're just so far from it. It's rough. I'm sure especially for you where you've got so many needs pulling on you.
