You have, most likely, read my blog from a few days ago, when I attended the funeral of the 3rd grader from my children’s school. But, because I received a great response to that post I felt compelled to TALK about what I thought about and how it all made me feel. So, this show is an extension of that post.
Thank you for listening and for visiting MommyofMany.com. I look forward to your comments and questions. You can email me at; Jen@MommyofMany.com.
Good night~

Thank you for doing this one! I so often go back and forth between wanting to soak up every moment with Sophia or make sure the chores are getting done, or I’m tired, or I just want to sit or sleep by myself. How I would miss all those “uncomfortable and inconvenient” moments if she were not here. It is so good for me as a first time mom to have someone with experience really talk about her strengths and weaknesses and humanness. I love you.

Thanks for the challenge, again! I need those perspective-changes to help me see the fun, beauty, and joy of my children again. Thank you!

Great show & very true
I’ve found I’m able to soak in and enjoy all those crazy moments if I’m willing to just “go with the flow” and let the boys lead in whatever interests them (and offer it up). It does make for a peaceful, fun, and wonderful time. I hope that as we have more children (God willing) I can keep that frame of mind and not get too anxious. Even now with only 3, I definitely have my moments of being overwhelmed with the list of things to do and getting irritable- but I’ve learned to “kick back” a little, and I try not to let things get me too frazzled!
