Life is very full and so sweet with all these little people around. Most of the time I love being needed by so many people! But sometimes it's frustrating and those are the times when I go into my room and have a time out- 31 minutes because I'm 31. Just enough time to calm down, say a prayer, get the tears out if necessary, and watch FOX news for a few minutes. Life is exhausting, exhilarating, messy, and beautiful!

haha. you are funny. and janie is just beautiful in the one in pink with her arms up. i love it. i guess i might like having a girl.
She so sooo cute that it almost makes me want another:) But I did say almost!
I looooove the 31 minute time out! It only makes sense that if the kids have to go to time out for however many minutes that they are old, then mom has to, too. Good for you!
Ditto what Lanna said....Janie is such a little doll!
She is so precious. I would love to get my hands on her! You are a good example of giving yourself a "timeout" and saying a prayer. I should do that more often. Although, I must say, it can be even more frustraing when you are trying to pray and you've got somebody banging on the bedroom door, "Moooommmm!!" I laughed a little about the Fox news, but I totally know what you mean. Hearing adults on TV having adult conversation is almost as good as talking to one in person! Contact with the real world, right? :) Some days I think if I hear Moose A. Moose sing another "diddy" on Noggin I'm going to pull my hair out!
Becky, she really is beautiful!
I love what you wrote. I feel exactly the same way, and I'm going to try that 31 minute idea! You inspire me!
