And I don't want to mess up another person and don't know if I am fit (ack!) - I also seem to require alone time to recharge my batteries. I wish I came with a manual so I would know what to do :) <br /><br />The hardest part to me seems to be the work-life balance thing. The 8-5 world doesn't seem to make many allowances for moms. I figure I will have to invent my own type of work or do some negotiating, but it makes me sad that it isn't commonplace to have flexibility built in to our traditional working environments. I hope this changes.<br /><br />Thanks for the moral support and the encouragement to go for it - I appreciate it more than you can imagine :)<br />xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox ((((love))))<br />KristenKristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13871298566239171976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-55440343269066909082012-04-04T14:25:00.782-05:002012-04-04T14:25:00.782-05:00beautiful

Nothing prepared me for how I feel about my son. I often feel as if I will never be OK again with the images of how he will make his way in the world. And this school year, being particularly tough, there have been so many injustices to swallow and lessons to learn. Sometimes lessons don't make people stronger, they break a piece of them. But I know that allowing Spirit to work its way is more important and effective than anything I can do. I must remind myself to breathe regularly.The Bodhi Chicklethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12287125977780580043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-12669903179455487982012-04-03T17:29:30.895-05:002012-04-03T17:29:30.895-05:00tear-clog in my throat. just as well i can type an...tear-clog in my throat. just as well i can type and don't have to speak.<br /><br />as crazy as this rollercoaster of Motherhood is for me...i know without a shadow of a doubt that i never would have made the leaps and pushed the boundaries that i have, if not for my children. they inspire me to be more and better...i thought i was doing it for them but it turns out i get to do it for me, too.<br /><br />so beautiful...you have such a way of distilling these deep entanglements into sensible and coherent concepts...without ever losing the beauty that the entanglements are....<br /><br />*sigh*<br /><br />i am SO honoured to call myself your friend...<br /><br />xoxoxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-742538388423110252012-04-03T13:04:38.184-05:002012-04-03T13:04:38.184-05:00Lis, your words are exquisite.
