They want their fans to say "No! We love you! Don't go!" It happens the same way at message boards too.<BR/><BR/>I hope that you're able to get some more rest. I know how draining it can get and how little time that can be left for much else aside from taking care of the kids. It gets so much better the older both of them will get.

I guess that sounds like exhaustion is the key to successful blogging! But you have put to "paper", or screen I guess, so many emotions, and maybe actual places I remember being not so long ago. My 2nd daughter was born just 18 mos. after the first, and the new baby was colicky and not sleeping well. My oldest was not ready for the division of attention. Life was getting through the next hour, nursing the baby, watching the clock...I've never been able to describe some of the feelings, but in your stories here, I've found myself thinking, "yeah, I remember being there." And I've wanted to check back and see each day where you are and how you're doing. Thank you so much for sharing a small piece of yourself here. <BR/>For me, things are better. It happened gradually. And in time you will be less tired, more in control, more at peace. Each day, more. So you are doing just the right thing to take a break. I'll miss your writing which has such heart. <BR/>I'm thinking your page will be like those little shops that hang a sign in the window: "Will Return" when they step out for a walk or lunch or respite. Take good care and I'm looking forward to reading about where you've been when you open shop again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558474.post-75950865945298431982008-08-06T19:58:00.000-04:002008-08-06T19:58:00.000-04:00Your faithful readers will be here when you get ba...Your faithful readers will be here when you get back - we think you're awesome. <BR/><BR/>Maybe a little Business Time would help...does HBF have Business Socks?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558474.post-80697447569921220412008-08-06T17:52:00.000-04:002008-08-06T17:52:00.000-04:00You know what?
