Hi

Doug has been out of town on and off for most the summer, at music festivals that are too incredible to pass up. I am feeling large and tired most days, taking care of 2 2/3 children myself. I miss my husband. I miss our extended family. We haven't been able to visit them for almost two years. But I feel such love from our "family" here. Thank you for all your support. On days that I feel I may lose it, you reach out to us, maybe not even realizing it. It means so much to me.


Our kids are such a joy. I love to be with them. Whenever I leave them with babysitters, I miss them (although I don't always want to admit it!). Our little family is everything to me, and I can't wait until we're all together again...and our family of four becomes a family of five.

Love you, Janae! Saw Doug a week ago with the Temple Hill concerts going on - wish you were there! You're SuperWoman, Janae, you really are!

You are amazing! Hope you enjoy the rest of the summer!

You can do anything Janae. I can only imagine how hard it is, but you will come out being stronger and a better mother! (Not that you aren't already great). I was sad you covered your stomach in the picture. I want a pregnant belly shot! I love you.

You mentioned on my blog that Doug was going to be gone for 7 weeks, and I thought it must've been a typo-- seriously, 7 weeks? That must be so hard! Having J gone for 3 weeks almost killed me. {which is funny, since I was so convinced that I'd actually 'enjoy' the alone time. HA!}

I wish I lived closer. We could be pregnant and overwhelmed together. :) Hang in there!

Janae! Your kids are so lucky to have you for their mama. And you are my hero for surviving without a hubby for such a while! Hang in there. And please post a belly picture. I want to see it!
