I am consistently let down by people I depend on

Being a mother is hard work. There is the never ending laundry, constant cleaning, diapers, buying groceries, trying to plan balanced food for three children, remembering doctor, dentist, eye doctor, soccer, piano, baseball, camps and preschool. Just a reminder all 3 kids are 5 and under.

I don't understand how people without kids or grown kids can constantly let me down. How can people just decide the evening before or the day of that they can't fulfill what they promised. No one owes me anything, but shouldn't people follow through with their commitments?

Before I had kids I was working fulltime during the day, teaching lessons three evenings a week and taking classes two evenings a week. On top of that I met my husband and found time to get pregnant. I kept that schedule even when I was pregnant and first had Luke.

This past year my husband was in his senior year of college taking 18 credits. I taught 2 nights a week, worked 40 hours at church and took care of 3 kids. How can I handle that and yet people with not even half of those commitments have issues making it to a meeting on time?

AAAAHHHHH!!!!
