(which actually means hold is and i'll pull you wherever i'd like you to go). i miss neatness and order...though i'm not even that orderly...and time to ponder.Elizabeth DeVita-Raeburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06830680868671437204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-26202058119501531802009-01-16T09:52:00.000-05:002009-01-16T09:52:00.000-05:00Hi!

The coffee gets made, it gets poured, someone needs juice, someone pulls someone's hair, someone needs their heiny wiped ... I wash my hands a bazillion times, reach for my coffee and it's cold. Pour it down the drain, refill, repeat. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and I miss sleep. And books. And writing. And my husband. I miss all the time I now spend in meetings at the school and sitting in doctors' waiting rooms. I LOVE my kids, but I miss my life.pixiemamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15343744406666443879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-4534236878867770772009-01-15T23:15:00.000-05:002009-01-15T23:15:00.000-05:00Oh, I miss manicures that aren't ruined because I ...Oh, I miss manicures that aren't ruined because I have to jump up and stop Daniel's latest wrecking job on the house! Like you, I also miss not worrying about the big stuff. Last but not least, I miss having nothing but lipstick, my cell phone, and other "me" items in the purse that now holds Daniel's Bob Books and crayons when we go out.<BR/>But would I go back to my old life for even a minute? Never. I'll take the toddler antics, hospital/therapy appointments, and frequent worrying as long as I get to keep my little miracle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-43637552151003333922009-01-15T21:39:00.000-05:002009-01-15T21:39:00.000-05:00Thanks so much, Jessica.

Barbara, I know you've been through a lot, I can understand why you don't think that much about life pre-Bennett. Getting sentimental probably isn't an issue for a lot of us--who has the time?!Ellen Seidmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01433429847255621203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-36452142738044996842009-01-15T19:24:00.000-05:002009-01-15T19:24:00.000-05:00Not really.

And the carefree lack of worrying about the big things. I'm so with you on the big things. And the quiet. Where did it go?
