my purse got stolen awhile back.  i was pretty torn up about it.

elizabeth it awfully sick right now.  i get worked up about it a couple times a day, especially when i feel particularly unable to assuage her pain.

maybe i'm not as self-aware as i think, but i don't find myself to be a very outwardly positive person.  i'm sarcastic, wry, a realist.  but when the purse thing happened.....and now with this virus thing, i find myself really brought to a place of gratitude.

things could be way worse.

i've been repeating it to myself a lot the past few days, because it's so easy to let a few hours of missed sleep ruin you, ya know?  things could be way worse. 

and this is how motherhood makes you into a better, stronger person.

  1. Good perspective, things could be much worse.(after all you still have all your childs pictures. Yes,I'm still bitter, and need to forget and move on. Maybe another day) I hope this sickness doesnt last much longer. Seems like forever in a day since we have seen you.
