Now is good

April 23, 2012 by Miranda 6 Comments

I have bits of blog posts written in all the parts of my brain that can possibly house such things at the moment, but the goal right now is to rest and sleep as much as I can whenever I can.  And sleep is lacking since Joshua’s had a stomach flu that has prevented my being able to sleep in or lay down when Emma takes her morning nap, so I’m keeping this post short and sweet.

Basically, I’ve successfully kept another human being alive (again) for two weeks. WOOT!

I’ve also managed to keep myself mostly showered and shaved, even. And I did not have a repeat of THIS experience. So hallelujah for that.

I’ve had my first sol0-parenting experience with the both of them and everyone came out unscathed.

Short on time? Save this post for later.

No more lost tabs, random screenshots, or digging through your browser history. Save this post and do future-you a favor.

(It's like a bookmark, but...not.)

I’m figuring out life as a mom of two and how to stay connected to Joshua while also tending to Emma’s needs and while there’s a learning curve involved, I feel like I’m a much faster study this time than last.

While there have certainly been a few rough moments, we’re navigating life as a family of four pretty well right now. In this moment.

Tomorrow may be a different story altogether. But right now? Right now is good.

    Isn’t amazing when you have one, you think that it is the hardest thing in the world. Then, number two comes along and you realize you are capable, able and happily navigating being a parent to two kids? I actually think I have become a better mom since having my second!
