TIME OUT!!!

I am utterly pushed to my breaking point on so many levels! Since having "Baby Elijah," so many things have been put into perspective...and so many decisions need to be made so quickly. I long to really pour my heart out to someone who has been through what we're going through and who understands, but is it my pride that keeps me from seeking those people out? My fear of rejection? Is it my incredible lack of contentment that seems to surface when I least desire it to? Sometimes I wish someone would put me in a "time-out." I desperately need one.

Lord help me....and I mean that in the most respectful way.

I think it is so important to have other moms to talk to. That's why those Mommy and Me classes are so big, not only for the baby time, but the mom support group. This is a huge job, the biggest most important one we will ever have. We need to know we are not alone or crazy. I have recently learned to take "time-outs" for myself. Elliott does, but I felt like I shouldn't b/c I'm the Mommy, I should always be there. But I have found that every so often going to a movie, the mall, or even just a walk by myself makes me a better mommy. I think Micaiah enjoys the break, too.

Find someone, and please, take breaks! Hang in there, we love you.
