on living with a toddler...
there's so much hope in having a baby, in the smiles, the cute, the laughter, but when you hit toddlerhood, you have to stop and breathe to remember the hope is still there on the other side of it all.
i've been realizing very clearly lately something I've known for a while in the back of my mind: my daughter is a high-need child, the kind of child who is like a wild filly, needing to be gentled, to be safe, to know she is loved more than she needs limitations. she is like her mother, sensitive, strong-willed, very passionate.
this weekend, I've been trying to breathe, trying to remember who I am and why I love, taking a moment to look ahead to what is beyond this moment when I just can't fix everything at once.
(I've got a TON of comments to return, and a crazy, crazy week before another wedding on Saturday! Please forgive me if I don't get back right away!)
