Three under three can do a number on you physically and emotionally, but it is crazy how much these babies give us in return!

Preach it sister! So true and beautifully stated. Thanks for sharing your insights.

Our number 3 is 9 months and we are still trying to adjust. I was randomly watching I’ll have what Phil’s having on Netflix, and the show made a big point of how people in different cultures make self-care or slowing down to just “be” a part of their daily routine (i.e. Tea breaks, the beautiful parks in the middle of the city, and siesta! I vote for siesta. Really am inspired to include these!

I am currently pregnant with our first little one, so I appreciate hearing your words of experience and wisdom as the adventure of parenting speedily comes towards us 🙂 I think it’s really awesome that in the past year or so, so many moms are bringing the importance of “me time” to the blogosphere! A lot of my friends, like me, grew up in circles where many of the loving mothers seemed to think that caring for their kids meant literally always putting themselves aside for the sake of being with their kids. But that only causes mommy burn-out, which isn’t good for anyone! Again, thank you for this-I like how your approach is very take-charge, instead of just letting yourself be swamped and destroyed by all of the rough stuff that comes your way 🙂
