I've been at your house when it's been crazy and you do a fabulous job at keeping it together. I'm glad you had a breakdown because that's what we need sometime to be able to start over and have fresh perspective. You are awesome! Hang in there friend. love you!Carleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10686549506684641801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4582769829379880254.post-89389301063210540852009-07-25T08:38:17.842-05:002009-07-25T08:38:17.842-05:00Mary--despite this well written post (we have all ...Mary--despite this well written post (we have all been there!!)

What I realized is that I remember very little of it, and as easy as Tatum tried to make things, it was all still a big blur... survival mode type stuff. <br /><br />The light is coming, Mary. Tatum is now 6 months, and it seems like we've been in a good rhythm for a while. Soon the mystery will begin to unravel and life with a newborn will be replaced by life with a baby...the cute kind that you fall more in love with every day. <br /><br />In the meantime, by ALL means, let the tears flow. Do what you've got to do to re-callibrate, pull yourself up by those bootstraps and take another step forward. <br /><br />Oh...and I had another wild-hair idea. Sometime when Sean is home, or when your sitter arsenal is at the ready, you and I should have lunch, dinner, etc. without the kiddos (gasp!). It would be fun to "get away" and share war stories. <br /><br />I'm praying for you friend, that each new day brings you a renewed strength and sense of purpose. <br /><br />ps. I still think you're super-momAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4582769829379880254.post-28345932884123178002009-07-24T14:49:52.981-05:002009-07-24T14:49:52.981-05:00I love this story and have been in your shoes. No...I love this story and have been in your shoes. Not sure why I didn't document it. Probably too torn up to write. Sometime in May, I was heading down to Waxahachie to for a DAR luncheon my mom was having. I got all the way downtown and realized I didn't have any supplies. I called my mom BREAKING DOWN, turned around, and continued hysterically crying the entire ride back home. I then pulled in the driveway, turned on a sad song, and continued to cry. I felt much better after that! That was just one example of many.<br /><br />As far as not having it figured out, you know I am in the same boat. We have been scheduling for 4 months now, and daytimes are still a mess. I must say she luckily has nights down, which makes days easier to handle. <br /><br />Woo hoo for new days and new outlooks! Enjoy your weekend with your hubby.<br /><br />We are heading your way tomorrow for a birthday party...Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08039580894167276994noreply@blogger.com
