Funny we just had a convo about this the other day I bet you thought I had read this. . That damn GUILT, funny thing is that there are those moms that succumb to that guilt and let it all go, we both know them , have them in our lives. BUT WE ARE STILL GOING STRONG, doing what we are supposed to, remember that. ..I could go on and on and on about how much I love you and aspire to be the parent and even person you are (minus the funny part) ;) All I will say is that all these peeps you write about above are LUCKY to have you and they know it..room mom or not.

It was time. <br />We all hope to get there- to break out and find our voice again. Find ourselves again.<br />Enjoy the summer of JR- we'll be waiting for your return.

The 'Hot Pink' phase, the pastel phase the neutral phase, the Gray phase. The teens are done with their phases. Next phase will be phasing into their own apartments/dorms!! Our six year old probably has a few more paint color phases to go ;) My hubby is usually pretty quick, I can just be pretty impatient. But don't get me started on my air conditioner in my car. He better have that thing fixed before I drive to Palm Springs in a month. <br /><br />Marianne- You are signed up.
