my own blog helped me

I just went back and re-read this blog post, and the comments from the readers are so encouraging to me right now. I just needed to hear some encouraging words, cause me & Baron are struggling with some of the same emotions I expressed in that former blog post. That's all...I just wanted to share! :-)

  1. Don't you hate trying to fit in? And, here is something else that I've experienced. Just because you have kids doesn't mean that you can click with that family with kids too. People want to click with families that have kids the age of theirs!

    Ugh.

    If you think about it, you are really limiting yourself to those you could potentially "click" with, when you force yourself to find common ground. Doesn't make sense - but that's how we feel.

    I struggle with this all the time. I think it comes from just not feeling adequate. But, I also think that everyone worries about fitting in, and "clicking" with that special someone or family.

    Ahhhh.... that makes me feel better, too! :)

  2. My husband and I deal with the same feelings...that's probably why we spend so much time just the two of us instead of with others. Thanks for posting this..It's not necessarily "good" to know that others feel this way, but it is, you know?! Hope that makes sense.

    Love your blog by the way, and am praying for you and your husband!!
