Today is Thursday and I've spent the day with my old friend Liz at her new home in Oviedo with her 2 year old Nicholas and 4 year old Braylin. Braylin can read already! Is that normal? It was good to see life with two kids at home. It confirmed to me that I only want ONE child and that I will probably work part-time at the Pregnancy Center where I've been for the past five years. It's hard to know at this point, of course.
All my friends have kids now and all of them are stay at home moms. I think that's really amazing! I enjoyed being a nanny for the Roberge family during my 20's and I really admired their mom's lifestyle of shopping, working out, and having lunch with friends while I babysat for her. She also had someone else come in to cook, clean, and do laundry once a week. So, she had it made!
I'm thinking of signing up at our local YMCA after I check out a few classes. I really need to work on getting in shape before making a baby. I've put it off for three years and It's getting out of hand. I've tried many different diets over the past year . . . all making me feel like a total failure. I know I just need to eat less and move more and stop trying every other shortcut out there. Any advice or encouragement would be appreciated!
