Harper is two weeks old now. She has grown 2 inches and gained nearly two pounds. McKenzie is adjusting fantastically to being a big sister. She loves to help and is creating wonderful opportunities for her mother to practice grace and patience. My days are a churning vortex of constant responsibility. If the girls are in one piece at bedtime and Josh has clean clothes to wear to the gym and work the next day I successfully conquered the chaos.
In my spare nano seconds, I daydream about having enough time to complete a sentence, maybe even an entire thought. After that, I'd put away the folded laundry. That day is probably far in the future, possibly the next life. I guess I'll keep cleaning, washing, diapering, burping, shopping, cooking, and somewhere in there sleeping, 'till I spin pell-mell, tumble bumble into the driveway of the Funny Farm.

at some point, you will be able to catch your breath. having two does not double the work, it multiplies exponentially. However, the joys multiply that way too!
