    I hear you! We just weaned Cupcake off night nursing. She was getting in her canines last month and was waking 4-5 times a night. I kind of lost my mind.

    The real question…Did you notice it before you went to bed or in the morning? :-D

    I just night weaned my toddler about three weeks ago. Now if I could just get the stupid dog trained with her underground fence so she isn’t on the porch in her crate barking all night. Does it ever end?

    Hugs and blessings. Motherhood is more about endurance than any other character quality, I think.

Hi, I’m Kate

I’m a wife, mom of five kids, writer, speaker, storyteller, bibliophile, runner, eating disorder survivor, and perfectionist in recovery. I'm the author of Getting Past Perfect: Finding Joy & Grace in the Messiness of Motherhood  and Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body.

I’ve tried a lot of things in my life – anorexia, bulimia, law school, teaching aerobics, extended breastfeeding, vegetarianism, trying to be perfect and failing miserably at it – and through it all I’ve been writing. And learning to embrace the messiness of life instead of covering it up, making excuses for it, or being ashamed of my brokenness or my home’s sticky counters.

Nowadays I’m striving every single, imperfect day to strike a balance between keeping it real and keeping it joyful.

 

“She could never be a saint, but she thought she could be a martyr if they killed her quick.”

―Flannery O'Connor
