It is a great idea, because there are so many questions when you first start out!!

I don't have a comparison problem there, but I have seen many blogs to that effect. I do struggle with doing other things online (facebook games, anyone?) that encourage wasting time while making me feel like I'm being productive. So, for the 3rd time in the past few years I've blocked all games for at least the next 6 Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15577409651042520324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35864388.post-12208758477134215162012-06-24T08:55:55.453-05:002012-06-24T08:55:55.453-05:00Oh yes, I suffer from this "am i enough"...Oh yes, I suffer from this "am i enough" syndrome too.

I have found that to be a strong correlation in my own life. The more I look at "perfect" homes in magazines, the more I pin other people's fantastically creative ideas on Pinterest, the more I read parenting books about what "good" moms should be doing, the more I feel like I'm not enough.

This is big stuff. I know from Lindsey's school history, that if she'd had somebody advocating all along, things would've been much different for her educationally at this point. She's hanging in there, but still followed along with feelings of being "stupid" because she missed so much.Jamie {See Jamie blog}https://www.blogger.com/profile/18212749055211487304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35864388.post-50965465415422348542012-02-19T13:57:16.390-06:002012-02-19T13:57:16.390-06:00Just popped over from one of the AO boards.

After all they do belong to him. I think that he has entrusted you with a few extra because he knows the love you can give. I have to agree that boys are easier than girls.
