Oh I really like your new header!
October 31st, 2006 @ 9:39 am
I loved what you wrote.
It’s all so true.

Love love the new header.
Scary: I have been fighting this fear lately of my son getting hurt or other horrible things – it was brought on by him ALMOST sticking a key in a light socket. It comes on pretty instantly and I can’t breathe, can’t speak. Scary to me is loving that little boy SO much that I know that my heart will literally stop if something were to happen to him … and I can’t get past that worry.

courange?

Rosa–I definitely agree. Courage is the other face of fear, isn’t it?

Love the new header Christina. Very almost-wintery.

scary to me is the fear of the unknown. whenever i was pregnant i felt this, more so with our third child. even though i had been pregnant twice before, there was still this fear of not knowing how everything would turn out. this is the only time i have felt scared.
November 1st, 2006 @ 4:49 am
so yes, i understand and identify with your words totally.

ROSA–I just finally figured out what the heck you were referring to!! Lady, you needed to spell that out for me. I’m so embarrased I’ve had that header up all week. Next time you notice something like that, yell it loud and clear, okay? xo,C
