I don't think any of us do this enough. All we can do is compare, compare, compare ourselves to others and feel defeated, defeated, and defeated when we don't accomplish all the things we set to accomplish in a 24 hour time span. And I think sometimes we misplace the blessing of life happening to us throughout the day... the "inconveniences" to us that really take away from the fact that we are alive and breathing. <br /><br />Cheers to you, Alexandra.

Sometimes it keeps me awake at night, especially these days as my children's lives get busier and I'm working so hard at this writing gig. I can't even say I'm feeding them heartily anymore. Sigh. But I think that's the sign of a good mother, right? Someone who worries she's not doing it all. At least I hope so. <br /><br />I raise my glass to you today and every day for your absolute wonderfulness.
