2. Pretty much my life feels out of control. But I'm coming to terms with it. Learning to embrace it, even. The other day I made a list of the things I CAN control. It felt like a pretty short list. But, in fact, it was much longer than I expected. I might not be able to always control how clean my house is or how we'll behaved my children are, but it's nice to remember that I can always control the way I react. (Even when I'm sleep deprived.)
3. I have four children. And I have for two months now. It is still shocking, even to me, sometimes. I just can't get over that these four little lives are forever attached to my own. It's a wild ride, but I wouldn't get off for anything.
4. The newest of those four little people is named Goldie. Every single day since she was born I have re-fallen in love with her name (and with the girl herself, of course). I hope that someday she loves her name as much as I do. Because I love it.
5. I want to work on my writing skills again. Fingers crossed.
