Come to find out? He's awesome at someone else's house. Go figure.<br /><br />Take your friends up on the offers. I know offers like that have saved my ENTIRE sanity since we moved so far away from family. <br /><br />Hang in there and before you know it? You'll have kicked this separation (by military) in the butt!Miss Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07570326989323177520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299795869183714145.post-74397306640907474932009-04-22T03:48:00.000-07:002009-04-22T03:48:00.000-07:00Keri-
Do take up any and all offers from others. ...Keri-<br />Do take up any and all offers from others. I am sure that they would not be offering if they did not know your children. I have totally been more of an single mom than I ever wanted to be with my duaghter so hang in there. I know it is tough but you are stronger than you know. Focus on the good things and don't stress about the blog thing. I did the same thing when I was in your shoes, I took a 10 month break from life and I am just now getting back into the swing of things. Take a breath and relax. Don't feel embarrassed about your kids, let others help if they offer. You need it and it will be good for your kids too!!! They feel the stress that you emit even when you try not to show it. Good luck and best wishes!!Lauren Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151376443744410332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299795869183714145.post-52292523313114498282009-04-22T00:43:00.000-07:002009-04-22T00:43:00.000-07:00Keri, you were the same way at three. Relax, you ...Keri, you were the same way at three. Relax, you turned out great! And, take one of those offers. She'll be better than you think and it will do you both good. I'm sure that the ones offering are quite aware of what a teething 6 month old and independent 3 year old are like. If they weren't sincere, they wouldn't offer! <br /><br />All of you were always better at someone else's house when I wasn't there. I used to get compliments on how well you all behaved. So, lighten up and give yourself and the girls a different perspective of the world for a few hours. <br /><br />And, I'm only a phone call, text message, or email away. I love you and I am so proud of you!<br />Momjourneywomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15834412019499216671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2299795869183714145.post-55607257470539432792009-04-20T05:17:00.000-07:002009-04-20T05:17:00.000-07:00i've been wondering how you were. hang in there. i...i've been wondering how you were. hang in there. it isn't easy doing the single mom thing while the husband is gone, i'm sure. don't worry about the blog b/c i am sure people understand.AndreaLeighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15947251123686458404noreply@blogger.com
