This week, I feel like being cohesive. So I'm going to run in a straight line from my topic last week. I hope you don't mind

Man, you have some really nice phrases here. I really enjoyed this piece.

Thank you! I tried to make the writing express the beauty of what I was talking about, since not everyone reading this will truly understand unless they have kids.

I almost wrote about my kids too:) They ARE The most beautiful thing in the world to a parent.

I really love when you say:

"We made life" Three words that encompass the most life-changing and amazing thing that can happen.

This is SOOO true:

Every day for me is mundane, routine, frustrating, and completely, utterly beautiful.

It's true. All at the same time. Beautiful AND frustrating. You explained it well.

This line was just perfect:

My love and my frustration, my anger and my hope.

You wrote how I feel about my kids. Thanks so much for sharing this, for finding the words I can't seem to quite say. I really enjoyed this entry!:)

Thank you so much! I never expected to feel this way about my kid, to be honest. I babysat so much for my sisters and neighborhood kids that I just didn't think it would too much different - I couldn't have been more wrong. It's an entirely different experience.

Thanks for reading! :)
