How about the fact that I pretty much cheered and drooled when I saw the commercial for the new Honda minivan with the built in vacuum? Pretty much my parenting low point I'd say;)

Thank you for the reminder that these blogs that we love so dearly and pour so much into, are a place for us to be authentic. Sometimes that means humor and silly antecdotes about our lives. Other times it will be about the not so funny, real, painful stuff. All are pieces of who we are and all should be shared. Thanks for having the courage to do that.

Why doesn't the bathroom thing ever seem to end. My oldest is 9.5 and he ineveitably has to go to the bathroom within minutes of getting in the car. Of course, 3 bites into any meal and he has to poop so I shouldn't be surprised. I finally caved like house of cards and got a portable DVD player for our long trips- like our 10 hour trip to Tahoe coming up. It's that or end up on the news for beign the mom who left her kids on the side of the road because they whined too much. DVD player seems like the wiser option.

Bravo girl!! I love that you did this. It's so easy to even make "You Time" about others. I've found myself spending my quiet time making lists of how best to organize or meals or spend more time with the kids or meet my husband's needs. It's silly really. But like you said, we need our air mask if we're going to save anyone else. So just sitting or moving in quiet time give us the chance to just BE. A long lost art, in my opinion. This is a beautiful piece!

Thank you for showing the REAL face of depression. It's important that those who suffer with it see themselves in your face and those who don't suffer from it see that they may very well know someone who is and they dont' even know it! There should be no shame or guilt for feeling overwhelmed. Bravo for taking action. Meds saved me and pulled me out of my depression. I did the therapy and the yoga and the healthy eating and the exercise. But it wasn't enough. i need the help to balance out my chemicals and there is no shame in that! Nothing feels worse than feeling so depressed but not being able to muster the energy or motivation to do anything about it. It's like you know what to do, but can't make it happen. Meds help with that portion so you can do the work you want to do to feel better!!
Good luck! I am proud to know you- even if it's on the internet;)

I think this is the perfect representation of LIFE: it doesn't stay the same. there are surprises and unplanned miracles. We bend, we stretch but we don't break and we never return to where we were before because we are different... better!!
