Rewarding but exhausting.
worth every drop of sweat and tear.
not for the weak.
A gift.
unpredictable.
Ooh, ooh, ooh…I have another one. Motherhood is as beautiful as a sunset and every bit as peaceful. (If we don’t talk it up a bit, how will we ever get anyone to join us? Oh yeah, hormones. hee-hee)
Abigail: And you are certainly twice as exhausted as me!!
June: Awww. You are definitely a dedicated mom.
river2sea72: I suppose we get daily strength training!
Heather: That is so sweet!!! Your kids are lucky to have you.
Kerri: Girl, you crack me up!!! So glad you have a blog now.
Sad thing is, I crack myself up, too. I think that’s the first sign of insanity.
Fun! (I can say this ’cause I have no teenagers – yet)
A great adventure.
Kerri: If you’re insane then what am I?
Christina: Not for much longer….
Kristina: Will you hold my hand? This adventure makes me nervous most of the time.
Hmmm…let me think on that one.
