My Version of March Madness March 2, 2009
Monday my baby turns 5 and Wednesday Joey is 7. I am a big kid mom. It is the end of a very long stage in my life. After Nate started school, I always anticipated having another. And although it took me 16 years, it was always the plan. Now I am saying goodbye to my own fertility I suppose. They are thrilled to be growing big, it is just a little bittersweet for momma to lose her babies. And two birthdays in a week means two crazy kids and one crazy momma.
When I decided to open Parenting Oasis, it had to be a business that I could start with little financial risk and I had to be able to work it around my own children’s needs. Parenting Oasis occurred as an idea 4 years ago, after Zach was born, but I knew that even as my children grew, my commitment to parents of little ones was permanent.
I believe in the moment that we become family. I think becoming a parent is one of the most challenging transitions we face in life. Don’t worry, after 20 years or so you really get the hang of parenting.
