Perspective

I had nursery duty today at church. I overheard two other mothers, who both have older children, talking about some issues their friends who are new mothers are having. It was encouraging to me that these mothers couldn't really remember if their own children had gone through the same kinds of issues (not napping well, not burping, etc.) When you are in the midst of a problem — like Elliott's nap strike — it seems overwhelming. But the good news is that in probably less than a few months, I won't even remember it.
