In my circles, I feel like people rarely feel guilty for saying, "Busy!" :P I definitely see a lot of glorification of busy-ness in some. Anyhow. I struggle with this one these days because I literally *cannot* put all my values to play during this season of life and that makes me sad. Postpartum mood disorders and sleep deprivation makes functioning on a normal level, much less busy level, very hard. (Sorry to be a gloomy person!)
I guess that's when "Busy!" worries me. I know other mommies in this same stage of life and I worry about burn-out if they are in a similar situation and are struggling with PPD. It's easy to take pride in how much you can do even with a little one in tow, but it isn't always the healthiest thing in the long run. :-/
