This song is stuck in my head. Maybe it's because my 2-year-old says in a low voice, "Everyday I'm Shufflin." (It's so cute.) It could be because my husband tries to dance like the people in the video - and it simply delights me!! I even love the look on his face when he's bopping around and smiling at me to see how hard I'm going to laugh (or snort-laugh).But seriously, are you Shufflin' everyday? Sometimes I feel like I am - but with much less enthusiastic dance moves ... and certainly without the 90's fashion flashback. (I'm not cool enough to pull that off.) All SAHMs can feel like we're stuck in a monotonous, hypnotized pattern of the SAHMlifestyle. It goes something like this: Feed them Clean them up Change/dress them Entertain and/or referee playtime Feed them Clean them up Change them Get them to sleep Entertain and/or referee playtime Feed them Clean them up Change them Get them to sleep Call it a day! The shuffle can seem mindless. It's completely up to us if we want to be stuck. So instead of breaking out our clothes from the 90's, let's mix things up. Add some New Kids on the Block, MC Hammer, or Wilson Phillips. (BTW, I totally loved the Wilson Phillips bit in the Bridesmaids movie! Hilarious!!) Take the kids to the park, sit them down on the floor and teach them how to do the Running Man, or invent a dessert. Let them go roll in mud puddles - and join them. I mean, we can have fun with this SAHM gig. What are you going to do to keep from Shufflin' Everyday? Comment below!
