Damn. There is so much swirling around in my little brain.....So. Much. I am getting ready to enter my most personally difficult time of the year. Emotionally. I am also entering my most difficult semester (and LAST!) of college. Oh, and trying to train for another half marathon. There are many days as of late that I am not sure how I'm doing it or even why at times. I am trying to keep it together, trying to keep a balance. But sometimes I am not sure I am doing so well. With so many plates to juggle, even if they are ceramic plates, I often feel as though I am dropping one (or more). I am trying to figure out what I want in life. What is important to me. What I need versus what I want. And how it all fits together with various parts of my life. I'm learning that sometimes what you think is important is not so much and things that you didn't pay much mind to are actually more importan...

Hope you're feeling well!
Well, I've been all over the place on how many kids I wanted, when, etc. The funny thing is when I was a little girl, I said I wanted 6, and had them names (but don't like those names anymore), 3 of each. So far, between us, Eric and I have 4 (2 of "ours," and 1 each prior), and 2 of each sex. We think we want two more, someday, so I may end up with my 6 kids after all.
And you're still young, and there will be lots of weekends away. Heck, before long your daughter can babysit for the younger ones, right? LOL
Judy, if we have more, it will be ONE more. I would wait another 3 years before trying again, putting all the kids almost 4 years apart. I would be having the last one around 35. And that would be the end. So we would have a 12 yo, 8 yo, 4 yo and newborn. SCARY.
I do however have a niece that is already almost 15. So she can be hit up for sitting duty. And my sister is not old either, though older than me obviously with a 14 yo child. She is really good about taking on more kids (she has 3).
But yea, 35 would be the end. I am closing shop after that.
How are you feeling?
I've been checkin in every day looking for updates. How are you feeling?? You're in the homes stretch - don't leave us hanging!
Wishing you well,
