But this two kid thing is hard. No, it is not harder for me than it has ever been for anyone else, but it is hard. It is hard because #1 is a toddler and is constantly in need of something, or her fork is too red or her pasta is too hot or too cold…or both at the same time, and the 8 week old is basically stuck to me eating ALL. THE. TIME. All the time…
My children are amazing. My husband is amazing. My life (aside from the fact that I do not really remember it right now) is amazing and I feel very, very lucky. However, I am definitely in a different space than I was eight weeks ago. Work is looming in the next couple of weeks, sleep is a luxury, I am more snippy than usual, Baby #1 was only 22 months ago, but I feel like I do not remember everything…it is SO. VERY. DIFFERENT.
However, I have missed blogging – I have missed talking to and hearing from all of my bloggy friends and I promise – I will be back soon!
All you of mothers of many (and I consider 2 or more many) are my heroes. You really are. Thank you for being such an inspiration and for helping me remember that every day is just one day and the days will go too fast. Sooner than I can imagine, they will be all grown up so I am trying to revel in the moment. I will be back soon, I promise!
