Thank you for writing them. Every single parent goes through periods of self-doubt, etc. And we all feel so alone. So it is good to know that there are SO many other parents who are having similar experiences. Such important words. Thank you for writing them.

I've been reading since I was pregnant with Justice (4 on New Year's Day)...read through her first 3 years when I, too, forgot and did it all over again. Meet Tristan (1 on 12/13). I bought and have read and re-read "Motherhood's Not for Wimps" ~ truer words have never been spoken. Now? I'm going through a divorce with an almost-4 and almost-1 year old...both girls. I love these little girls with my whole soul. That does NOT mean there aren't MANY days where I start the bedtime routine at 7p. My alarm goes off at 4:23a.m. for my workday...and then the real workday starts when I walk through the doors of my parent's (who are gracious enough to allow us to stay there while my soon-to-be-ex goes on his merry way...sans child support) house. I've spent many a night over the last 6 months soothing my youngest daughter as the tears fall steadily from eyes that just cannot stay open for another second. You know what though? Their magic...their joy in the tiniest things...their ability to see past all things to find the "good." I love them more every.single.day. Thank you for this. You are a blessing. I make time to read every week. If not everyday, I ALWAYS catch-up :) Thanks again...you rock! Liz…you are such a beautiful soul.
