Bifocals and baby bottles. The tale of two "older" parents raising two very spirited little girls. Home | Profile | Archives | Friends
Are we crazy to take on parenting at our age? I got into this mommyhood thing late in life, in my 40s. My brave (i.e.crazy) husband has already raised four children, and he wants to do it all over again.

Just yesterday I mentioned giving up sleep so I would have more time to devote to nonessential activities (like this blog).  And now here I am at 1:48am, unable to sleep.  Coincidence? I think not.

Problem is, although I am wide awake my mind is so disjointed and fuzzy that I am completely unable to write anything even vaguely insightful, witty or interesting.

I do read the blog and enjoy it. You my dear are a classic overachiever- trying to have and do it all. Simplify declutter and slow down the pace. I too prefer a fast pace, but the kids (and staying home) forces me to live at someone else's speed. My overachieving days are forced into the closet- and they are let out only a few hours per month. Someday I'll be a person again, and get to have my own mind racing at 2 a.m. and keeping me up. Lucky girl. I'll take the few hours you give us readers each month gratefully!
