I've always been of the mindset that sharing the good stuff is never as much fun as sharing the epic motherhood disasters. From the wash and sanitize anything that touches the floor first-time-mom moments to letting your third use a stick as a teething ring if it makes the baby happy. Life is HARD, motherhood is about survival, and keeping your sanity through it all....well, where's the fun in that?

a moment of peace is all i ask
Tonight, after dinner, i decided i would let Aaron get the kids ready for bed - noah showered, reagan bathed, so i could come downstairs for a moment of peace and work on my blog. It's lasted about 2 minutes because Reagan is already crying, Noah's mad about something, Aaron's irritated with Noah and did I mention Reagan is still crying? But i am determined to finish this post before i go upstairs and give Aaron a break... actually now there are threats of spankings, i may not get to finish after all, so i better hurry. yeah, i give up, Reagan's cry has now changed to a scream as she doesn't want to be outdone by the boys and it's working as I can no longer hear the "conversation" between aaron and noah - which means i should probably go intervene.

Brenda! So happy you started the blog! Be careful though, it is addicting, soon you will find yourself staying up until midnight as that is the only time you CAN have "a moment of peace" in order to finish your post! I love it. And think of all your East Coast friends you can stay in touch with! Well sister-in-law, you made me laugh today, hang in there and just remember that crying doesn't hurt a baby right?? Love you girl.
