I know, I know… it’s been a week, and I haven’t posted anything. I promise you I’ve been using my extra free time for good. I witnessed the birth of my nephew, I’ve visited with him multiple times (I keep threatening to -gently- shove him in my shirt and take him home with me.) and can’t get enough of him! I’ve had my grandma from out-of-state here visiting. It’s so fun to watch my children getting to know her, and her them. It’s just so sweet. My sister-in-law and nephew also came in for a surprise visit from China! And I’ve gotten to meet and/or talk to some really lovely mamas-to-be about providing my doula services to them! It’s been a fantastic week!
We’ve got a fun family wedding this afternoon, and the “big” Es are at their grandparents’ house to visit with their cousin, so we are soaking up Littlest and all his dramatic flair- he’s currently a dinosaur.
Before I go, I want to tell you about a post I was tagged in on Facebook this morning. A friend of mine got a card from another friend, and she uploaded a photo of what it said and tagged me. I loved it SO much that I decided I couldn’t help but share it:
she said “So! you’re a stay at home mom…”
in a way that insinuated
she wouldn’t be caught dead in that job
…and I laughed until I cried
because
I knew
…
she wasn’t qualified.
Have a wonderful weekend and remember that sometimes
how you’ve enjoyed your life is more important than what things you got done!
Wonderful news on the birth of your nephew! Congratulations 🙂
Love the quote. As a home birthin’ midwife, I was always in awe of SAHM’s.
thank you- it was wonderful!
Happy times :-). And a wonderful quote!
