I mostly spend each day living in brief gulps from one moment to the next. In between tickle fights and time outs, I also sweat it out each day on the tightrope that is PPD and all its repercussions in my family, my health, my marriage and my sense of humor. Some days are good, some days only wish they could aspire to the high ranks of pond scum, but it's all part of my life. And it's all worth it.

Okay, I know we’ve been trying to stress the simple things lately – less fancy toys, less TV, more creativity and reading and family time- but this is getting ridiculous.
Anna’s letter to Santa, as dictated to her preschool teacher:
“Dear Santa,
For Christmas this year please bring me a stick. And one marshmallow.
Love, Anna”
