I have three children under four. It's been done before. No big deal.
But I can't walk through a few rooms in my house due to the toys.
I rock out with Steve Green in my S-U-V and three car seats in the back.
I went to WalMart. With the three. It feels like trying to run under water.
I made it home with a glue gun. some 'inspiring hair accessories' for a 2 year old. Fish Sticks (???).
Forgot: the diapers. whole reason I went to walmart.
I haven't had a drink of water since. . . oh, yesterday.

just because it's been done before doesn't mean that your moments with these new little souls isn't extremely taxing and draining everyday. especially when you are trying to make each moment intentional, as we know you do toot. ps - i recommend you get mom's knack for a power nap :)
I didn't know how much I needed to drink water back when I was raising you guys - I would have gotten through each day better if I had. Try this: when you put that bottle up to your mouth, don't stop drinking 'til you get to 13 swallows (a Baker's dozen). You'll keep from getting dehydrated at least and you'll have more energy than if you only take one sip an hour. (I used to call THAT drinking!) Hey - I don't need as many power naps this way, either. Love, your favorite MOM
you're my hero - and you're doing awesome with 3! A good inspiration as I'm daunted by the expectations of twins in 6 mos or so ... God's grace is always sufficient.
I just added "Hannah Coulter" to my request list at the library. Sounds really good. Keep up the good blog. :)
Yeah Heather! Tell me your thoughts on hannah Coulter! another friend just shared with me how life changing it was for her. Mom, I'm trying, really, I am! Dan, love you.
