happy saturday!

(rolling around in the backyard)
we are enjoying an early spring? pretend spring? non existant winter?
whatever it is, i love it.
(yes, we need rain. i know. but i love this balmy weather and sunshine!)

hope you are having a wonderful weekend, 
with a spot of sunshine all your own!

(by the way, don't be mislead; 
this is a perfectly beautiful day, but even lovely days bring roller coaster emotions.
i swear i have been a bucket of random emotions this week! 
can i get an amen that parenting is HARD? and emotionally draining? 
cause it is doing a number on me this week.
anyone else with me?)

    Amen. Talking with a friend today, remembering moments of sheer overwhelmedness in those parenting days. xxx

    Oh, you can get an amen, bigtime. It didn't really hit me til today what a doozy of a week this has been - riding that roller coaster of being 4 with v. Alternating sweetamazingicantgetenoughofyou and areyoukiddingmewiththisseriouslyareyoukiddingme has left me utterly exhausted. I just got home from the market where I purchased a pint of the some crazy over the top ice cream which I intend to eat out of the carton while vegging in front of mindless tv. xoxo

    Amen, sister. As my father likes to say, seven days of this would make one weak. (Could whoever is in charge of four year old bladders please grant us *one* dry night?)

    Parenting is wicked hard. Exhausting, draining,and so emotionally charged. Thank goodness for those beautiful little faces when they're asleep - it's what keeps me going! Love them SO so much, but it is the hardest job on the planet.
