Let's Blog - Round 3

Well, I'm back for round three of blogging.  :)  I started this blog to keep track of milestones and fun events in our lives but eventually it became more about comparing myself as a mother and feeling inadequate.  I would read posts written so beautifully by mothers about savoring the little moments with their children and details about their day and I would begin to question myself as a mother.  I now know that those feelings did not come from other people and their blogs but from feelings and doubts within myself.  Those feelings have diminished some since I have become more comfortable in my own skin as a mother and embraced the chaos.  I realize that there is beauty in my imperfections - imperfections as a mother and a woman.  I decided to brush off this old blog and start anew in an effort to show those imperfections.  Today I have 18 followers.  I doubt half of them will read this post but this time I am writing for myself, not for them, and that is today's success.
