Some quick thoughts

One can never really know how parenthood is going to affect them until they dive in full speed ahead. Which is what I THOUGHT we did with Ana, but truth be told (sorry to all you parents of one kid out there) that is not 100% parenthood yet. The world changes exponentially when a second is added to the mix. Truly you ARE YOUR KIDS! For instance, right now, mid thought, I have to go b.c child #2 beckons. Can't even think quickly for yourself anymore.....welllll more later, but let me end with this. While I've had my moments of breakdown I finally feel as if my purpose in life has shown itself. My little girls. I can wait, for now I'm all for THEM!

Someday Taylor will be able to play independently with Ana and you'll be able to reflect again :) Someone once told me (and this person made me so irritated I just avoided her for a good long while because she had no freaking idea of what she was talking about) that two young ones are no more work than one. Whatever...I agree with every word you wrote Amy! SO GLAD things are getting better...I knew they would!

Dido, Dido, Dido.
When we as parents accept this...life gets that much better!
As much as we've been reminiscing about our "younger" years this past week, really,THIS is life. This is what is worth living for!
