Derailed and Unsettled

So our potty attempted was thrown off by some MESSY diarrhea. I was UNWILLING to deal with that mess more than once. On a positive note, Michael peed on the potty tonight. So we will do what we can during the week and then kick it into high gear again this weekend.

I think on Friday, I am going to steal the 10 fun facts post idea and I have been thinking of what to share and am pleasantly surprised to remember that I DID have a life before children. Imagine that!

As each new week begins, I find that at any given moment, I can feel like we have it together, things are clicking, it's not so bad juggling work/home. Equally, I can feel like everything is falling apart, it's not worth all this effort, I am tired of leaving my kids in the care of others each day. My feelings are always extreme that way...I wish I could settle into some sort of rhythm with all of this. I didn't expect to love this working full time thing so that's no shock. But after 4 months, I still don't feel settled. Am I ever going to?

here's a fun fact from pre-kids life--- I have a scar that I love, because it came from one of our first weekends on campus together, with U2 and air guitars and "still haven't found...."

That little scar was the beginning of a few great friendships--- one with you, the other with jean & helen...
