Thank you!!!!

Thank you Adventures in Babywearing and The Story of Fynn and Paige. The last couple months with my girls have been.....challenging (to say the least). And in the last few days you each had a post that felt like you were talking directly to me about the issues that I have been having and, in general, how I have been feeling. And it made me feel so much better to hear other moms talk about the same problems and that it's not just my almost 3 year old who acts out against their sibling because they are jealous. Or that wake up twelve times a night. Or yell because you just don't know what else to do sometimes. I knew I was not the only person going through this, but, sometimes you feel like you are. So to hear that, indeed, I am not alone was so reassuring and made me feel better as a mom. Because, frankly, I have not felt like a good mom in quite some time. So thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

  1. Glad my post could make you laugh! Wouldn't it be nice if Motherhood came with a manual? No one said it would be easy, but Wow, sometimes you wonder about the hardest job, but the most rewarding one. I am glad you have Steph and the other mother's to bounce off of one another.

  2. You are more than welcome :) That's why I love the blogging world! You never feel alone.

    I had no idea how trying having two children could be... or one for that matter! There's a new challenge every day, but ultimately every day is a joy in itself :)

    Hang in there!

  3. I totally feel ya on this one. I often feel like I am struggling to be the best mom that my girls deserve. This mommy job is the hardest job I have ever had by far! It is good to know that we are not all alone with our experiences. I try to keep my blog upbeat, but honestly, parenting is hard.

  4. I remember those days. They do get better. It just takes time. You are a great mommy to those two sweeties. Don't doubt yourself. Sometimes you just need to take a deep breath, count to ten and regroup. It will all work out. I'm glad you made some new blogging friends to vent with. Love you kiddo!
