also wanted to say that I am expecting my 4th baby in April (4 in 5 years!) and can identify a LOT with what you have been going through in mommy hood. focus on joy and beauty and REALLY don't stress about small things. I have had to give up daily exercising and have allowed running after kids to be my aerobics...crafts have gone from sewing projects to coloring pictures....and baking our bread has gone out of the picture for a bit. There is a time and place for everything under the sun...and right now I've seen that MY time is suppose to be with these littles...cherishing them and giving them special memories of me being present.
Love your blog. As a mother whose youngest two are 17 months apart, and now are 5 and 4, I can tell you that it does get easier, but yet harder in many ways. Your family is beautiful and I love your writing! What is "breaking open" is our hearts when we finally realize we have to pay attention with happiness and joy! Keep smiling even when you want to spit nails!!!
