		<description>I so needed to read this!! I feel the same way. I get overwhelmed sometimes but I am so glad that I sm. I almost always know it but somedays.... well, I just don&#039;t focus the right way. It is so nice to know that I am not the only one. :) Sorry that you are having overwhelming days. You always seem like you have it all together. Your kids are so happy and it is all so wonderful.

		<description>Gosh, Jenna, parenting &lt;strong&gt;one&lt;/strong&gt; child is overwhelming to ME; parenting &lt;strong&gt;two&lt;/strong&gt; children and the other stuff that is thrown your way? -- no wonder you&#039;re overwhelmed!

But you still keep things in perspective with how blessed you are -- what a fantastic attitude.  

Congratulations to your friends who are expecting.  I hope and pray they have an uneventful pregnancy.  :)

&lt;3 you.

		<description>You know what? I love this post. I don&#039;t love that you&#039;re overwhelmed with laundry and parenting and worry. I wish you weren&#039;t. But we&#039;ve all been there and we&#039;ve all written that post, and I don&#039;t know too many people who include the positive things they&#039;re overwhelmed with, too. It&#039;s like the bad things that overwhelm us start flooding from the ground up, and the good things (like love and gratitude) flood us from the heavens downward. That&#039;s what keeps the flood waters resting somewhere near my chin, I think. Just low enough so I can breathe and trudge through *verrrrry* carefully. :) Keep on keeping on.

And YAAAAAAY for your expectant friends! Keep us updated on their progress!
