Yes, from now on all of my posts will be titled using song lyrics.
Just kidding. Sometimes the lyrics just seem so appropriate.
I feel a million times better today. Thanks to you and your encouraging words, the sun and surf, and a free Chipotle lunch yesterday with two moms who confessed to feeling much the same way that I do.
Turns out a lot of moms have been feeling a general sense of anxiety about the meaning of our lives now that they revolve around our children. I wonder: why now? For the first few months postpartum, it is normal to feel like you’re underwater as you adjust to the changes in your body and the demands of your newborn. But 10 months later? Maybe now we are so much better at taking care of our kids that during the “break” times there’s not much left to do but listen to the chattery voices in our heads that say “NOW what?” I know I feel guilty when that voice kicks up, guilty because I’m not doing MORE with my life. As if growing a kid isn’t enough. When is anything ever enough?
Glad you are feeling better and the post you wrote over at the Mommy Times was awesome! Great job!
I’m so happy you are feeling more “sunny!” I love this picture. You have great outings with Kyle!
Glad you are feeling better. Sorry I couldn’t comment in a timely fashion, but I just wanted to warn you, I go through the same sort of anxiety every few months. I am working (unfortunately?) so it isn’t exactly the same but the doubts are there for me, too. Hey, does that help cheer you up, or what?
great picture. see, you’re totally a hot mommy!
What a beautiful picture of you both.
I’m glad that you are feeling better. It was so great to see you the other night. I think that every step in our lives leave us missing what we’ve left and fear of what is ahead. It comes with the territory and it helps to not hide those fears but to express them. So, remember I’ll never judge you and I’m always glad to listen even if I can’t offer sage advice. Take care and stay the wonderful vibrant you. You and Stew are raising a wonderful vibrant boy too!
