What's Up With That? ... a Top 5 List

1. they send new mothers home with a prescription for narcotics to take care of a new baby ... what's up with that?
2. i intended for this blog to be somewhat of an online spiritual journal without it becoming an online photo gallery of my really cute kids and ramblings of pediatrician updates and what not - as if I could separate my spiritual life from my real life ... what's up with that?
3. a seemingly normal 3 year old with a very sweet temprament has a mother who births a new baby and he turns into a not-so-normal 3 year old with a not-so-sweet temprament who forgot how to act ... what's up with that?
4. some people have to deal with major surgery recovery with a new baby and a toddler without an awesome, self-sacrificing mother and wonderfully sensitive husband ... what's up with that?
5. innocently playing your favorite cell phone game while lying in bed when your bottom lip just starts to quiver causing an all-out cry session for no apparent reason ... WHAT IS UP WITH THAT?

What is wrong with having a gallery of pics of your really cute kids...not all of us can be as intellectual as you! And you are right, you do have a selfless mom!

i was making the point that I realize that this blog is going to turn into such a gallery because you can't really separate your life into categories like that -- the point was: what was I thinking trying to do that!

Hey - don't you know that there is nothing "normal" about a 3 yr. old! Around the Wheeler house it was never "terrible twos", but "troublesome threes"! What is up with that!?
