Many Thanks...

One thing I wasn't prepared for postpartum has been my emotionalness...There were only a few occasions during pregnancy that I had a hormotional moment...but now, I can cry at the drop of a hat! Usually I cry for no real reason- other than perhaps a slight lack of sleep and/or worrying about not knowing what I'm doing!!!....but recently I had something to cry about. Tomorrow is the last day that Derrick has "off" of paternity leave. He's finally going to get to go back to work- get back into the grind- something I'm sure he's excited about. Back to my crying...the other day, Derrick was on the phone w/ one of his volunteers. She had been contacting people regarding upcoming auditions. I was overwhelmed. Oooh. I'm overwhelmed NOW! I was overwhelmed with gratitude...because w/o the help of Derrick's volunteers, he probably wouldn't have been able to take the time off that he did- or he mentally wouldn't have been there for me- like I needed! So. My blog is to thank all those people who made it possible for Derrick and I to discover parenthood together. You have NO idea how much I appreciate you.

I also wanted to thank all those people who brought dinner to us (feel free to keep them coming!!! ;) ) We have had some yuuuuummy food lately!
