I don’t even know why I am blogging right now. I don’t have any news, I don’t have any fab pictures to post, quite frankly, I really don’t have anything to say. But it’s been a while so here I am. Actually the majority of our recent posts have been made by Scott (he’s so awesome!). I know I am not any busier than my other blogging friends, in fact, they are busier than I am and still manage to blog. I suppose I’m just not interesting or creative enough.

I have been in a selfish mood lately. Maybe if I just unload my desires I’ll be released of them.

Here we go:

*If I am tired, I just want to lay down and go to sleep.

*I want to go somewhere without the hassle of coats, socks, shoes, and buckles.

*I want to shop at the grocery store without having to play i-spy while concentrating on coupons, prices, and ingredients.

*If I’m feeling creative, I want to pull out the knitting needles or the sewing machine without guilt.

That’s all. I feel bad for having these selfish thoughts. I know there are tons of gals who would do anything to be in my shoes. I am so lucky to have two beautiful girls. I am so lucky I get to stay home with them. I don’t even have the right to complain.

See how lucky I am?

    oh jenn! of course you have the right to complain!!! girl, staying home can be lonely and is so hard. i complain all the time, and at the same time i’m thankful that i have the choice to be with my boys. that’s why i do blog…cuz it’s a journal that reminds me of the good things! and it also makes me smile when i complain on my blog cuz then i can see the humor in the more difficult moments. don’t clean or cook for two nights, and knit!!

    Dear Jenn,
    I can remember (just barely) being in the same shoes. I just yearned to talk to another adult for 5 minutes! You are not selfish, just normal.Take time for you. Take a nap, knit, or whatever. Scott and your two adorable girls can be so thankful they have such a caring, wonderful Mom.
    Your honesty is so refreshing to me. I hope I can help relieve you in some small way.
    Love,Nancy
