That Which Does Not Kill Us

Sometimes in life you are faced with a life changing occurrence. Sometimes you realize that as a result of this one thing, you will never be the same again. That the safe, comfortable feeling you had, is something that is lost and you will have to work so damn hard to get back. I am sure we have all had these moments. I am sure that we have all felt as if we are broken to our innermost core and are not even sure where to begin to pick up the pieces and put them back together.

For those of you who are reading and have had this happen, I pray that you were able to build yourself back up. I pray that you received healing and were able to then be stronger as a result. I now pray that the same will be true for me.

Oh Abby

I wish there was something I could say which could speed the healing. Though I don't know the details of your situation, I do know the feeling which you describe. There are days when the pain is so great that it doesn't feel like it is possible to continue, but gradually and inexplicably, it starts to subside. Time and distance. You will heal and be stronger. I will be thinking of you and send all my love and positive energy down you way.

Sometimes There Are No Words

Last night I met a new friend. Let me preface this by saying I have made exactly ONE new friend in the last ten years. This makes number two. My Babycenter and Blogging friend Amanda , was having a conference in KC. We made plans to meet up. I felt a bit odd. Here I was making plans to meet someone I only knew from the Net. But Mark thought it was perfectly great and even said for me to stay out as long as I wanted. He said it was not as if I was meeting up with someone I saw often. Stay out and talk and have fun. So I did. I made plans to meet with Amanda. I knew we had a lot in common. Both from the board and from reading her blog. I knew she was someone who if she lived closer to me we could hang out. But I was a bit apprehensive. Here was someone who only knew me through the computer. So many what if's , right? Mark was actually the one who said I should meet with her, if only for a little while. So, I picked Amanda up at her hotel and off we went to Fooleries. Great place to ...

Why Choose It?

Judy posted a comment about being jealous at two weekends away from the kids. About how she figured it would be a long time before she got that chance. I have to admit, I thought better her than me to have the new baby. After our two weekends away and Mark joking that it was his ploy to convince me to not have anymore, I have to say.....I think it worked. After thinking about it and being able to get away so easily because the kids are bigger, I could not help but think, why go back and do it all again? If you had a choice between going out of town for the weekend or being stuck, tied down to a newborn who was feeding from your breasts every two hours and waking every three ,which would you choose? To which one might say why ever have kids at all.....fine. I have TWO. I have done it TWICE. Not only that, but for anyone who cares about it, I have one of each. One is almost seven, the other almost three. Granted Davis is not potty trained yet, but he does change his own diaper sometimes...
