A brand new day

I've recently spent a lot of time on my butt, trying to make sense of my life. Nothing quite like awaiting the arrival of a baby to take stock of one's life.

Now, Zoe is a month old. We've established a sort of routine, in that I'm on call for her 24/7. Maddie is slowly figuring how to be a big sis. Thankfully I don't have to go back to work til mid-February.

I was a bit freaked the first time I realized I'll be turning 40 with a newborn. I've found a lot of silver hairs on my head lately & my poor body has gone thru so much over the past 2 years.

I've resolved to accept my flaws & embrace my strengths. I'm not perfect. & i'll not ever be 100% fit but I can be the best mom I can be to my girls & strive to be happy.
