Blogging Mamas

You know those days when you feel like everything is just too much??? You are just so overwhelmed with work, kids, school (or whatever else it may be) and you just want a moment to yourself...you may not but sometimes, not too often, but sometimes I feel like that.  Especially the first few months after Meli's arrival. Usually this happens when I am beyond tired, behind on my homework, stressed from a busy day at work and then I come home and Colin is having a bad day and Meli is fussy - I find myself just wanting to scream!  Luckily this does not happen very often but there have been a few times.  It is hard adjusting to having two kids but I think that we have found a nice routine (a big part of that success is due to having a wonderful teammate), which recently had to change when I started back to work - but that adjustment worked out very nicely. When I do come upon these "down in the dumps" days I visit two blogs.  These two blogging mamas are such an inspiration to me. 

One lady lost her baby boy after 6 days.  I cannot even begin to imagine.  Here is her blog Waiting for Happy.

The other lady gave birth to a sleeping baby boy and then had another boy who was diagnosed with Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa. Her blog is Before the Morning.  He was not expected to reach his first birthday but he did and is doing well inspite of this condition.  Both are very well-written and just amazing women.  Reading for just a second reminds me how fortunate I am to have two beautiful healthy babies and my worries and stressors just disappear...

...or at least do not seem so bad.
