I think I can, I think I can, I think I can...
..do three kids.
So far, it's not looking so good.
This. Is. Hard.
So, for now, let's focus on the sweetness of some pictures, shall we? And the fact that they don't appear to be screamers, biters, who drag their runny poopy diapers around their ankles and laugh, whilst I have a baby on my boob. Bad, morning.. we'll leave it at that.
I saw this somewhere and loved it. Be you, FIND you, and be happy with that. I think this is harder and more rare than it should be. I see so many girls struggling to have confidence and be themselves, and in turn just come across trying too hard. Trying too hard to be perfect, to be different, to be admired, to be creative, to be liked. In this search to find ourselves are we just replications of other people who we want to be, or wish we were more like? Just be what you are, whatever it is, and own it.
Not saying I am not like this, you are preaching to the choir. But I think the first step is realizing that replication and facades that come across individualistic don't lead to this being happy with who you have found that you are.

oh no! i'm so sorry, toni! but the pictures really are adorable! you need dinner group. are you coming? i hope!!
oh, and i love that quote. i agree.
Love the quote! I am so sorry you are having a rough day, hang in there it will get better. Some days are better then others. Some days you feel like you can take on the world and other days you just want to lay in bed with the kids and watch movies. I have a treat for you and I was going to bring it over on Saturday but couldn't get ahold of you and then we got busy. How things change when you have a bunch of kids. So I am going to try to bring them over to you today or tomorrow. Hang in there, love ya!
My phone died on Friday. Lame. Tomorrow my new phone should be here. I'll call you. I'm so sorry you had a bad day. I love your guts and think you're amazing! Tomorrow will be better.
You can do it! I love you! Call anytime and I will for sure sympathize with craziness!
Oh boy you aren't making me want this child to come out! Ok never mind I still do, but I see this as a future post of mine. I love the quote too. I think about that all the time if I should be doing more or trying new things. But I am happy with me and that's what's important. Hang in there, I will sympathize with you soon!!!
