And while the second year was better, I still got easily overwhelmed. Well, it's only been a month or so since we started our third year, but already I can tell we're hitting our stride a lot more easily. I feel like I can finally breathe again and can manage all the different parts of my life, not easily, but definitely better.<br /><br />You are giving such a gift to your children!
