Why blog?

Why blog? To share our ridiculous stories of course. We love, love, love our kids and write about all their cute, adorableness on our seperate blogs but I think Sara and I commiserated about some of the not so cute and not so fun parts of being a Mom. It is the hardest job in the world and it just clicked. Women can spend to much time tearing each other down when we all just need a little encouragement. Or to laugh. Or both. A little encouragement might sound like...

"You didn't kill your child today. This makes you a good parent!"
 
or

"I have been there too."

We had confessions that we didn't tell anyone but had both experienced. It felt good to get them out. Like today. Sara, today was a good day in our house including a 3 hours afternoon nap (Addi not me)! However, this does not make me want to give up the opportunity of free babysitting tonight. That's right. Sometimes I go to church (guest speaker tonight) because of the free childcare. I don't think I've ever gone more (or needed to)! We even teach Sunday school now. 1 hour alone with my husband and I get to chat with other humans (no, my daughter does not count as she cannot walk erect or talk) before and after. Sometimes there are snacks. Addi can play with other kids. Win-win all the way around. Let the fun begin!

Update: No church for us tonight- Addi passed out at 6:15pm! A little extra time with the hubby either way!
