New Blogging Venture

While sitting at home with my two boys today I got to thinking that maybe blogging my thoughts on raising twins could become useful to some people. I heard of a woman who blogged about her postpartum depression, and a lot of people commented on how it helped them. I like to be real. I don't like to cover up and pretend everything is under control. I constantly shout out, "I'm weak, and I can't do this!" I do this because I find comfort when those that I respect and look up to can do the same. When they can tell me they've been through it too and its OK to feel that way.

We all know what we should be, we all know how we should act and we all usually know what the answer is to a problem. But when it gets down to the nitty gritty we give in to frustration, we explode and using those tools, that we know we have, becomes out of the question. If you're like me you may feel as though you have failed some how, like you couldn't pass the bar and like you aren't qualified to do these hard things that life throws at you. The truth is life is hard, and we're all just scraping along doing the best that we can.

I wanted to start this blog so that I don't give people a false impression of how my life is. Raising twins is hard, and I don't handle it gracefully most the time. I hope you can take some comfort in reading this. All we can do is try our hardest. Sometimes we reach the end of our rope, and that's OK. We can pick it up and start climbing again.
