Un-jaded

Why did I use the term "un-jaded mom"?

"Jaded" according to Webster is defined:


To wear out, as by overuse or overindulgence. See Synonyms at tire1.v. intr.
To become weary or spiritless.n.
A broken-down or useless horse; a nag.
A woman regarded as disreputable or shrewish.
Worn out; wearied: “My father's words had left me jaded and depressed” (William Styron).
Dulled by surfeit; sated: “the sickeningly sweet life of the amoral, jaded, bored upper classes” (John Simon).
Cynically or pretentiously callous.

I am a mom, a wife, a daughter, a friend. Never in my life would I like to be in any case --- jaded!
