I found it so much easier to be patient with the baby when my husband wasn't around. If he was, I would be irritated that things were going badly, or that he wasn't doing more to help. But when its just you and the baby, you really have to dig deep and rely on all the help from the Holy Spirit you can. I found that singing a hymn when I was really stressed with the baby gave me time to calm down, and usually helped to soothe the little one. I am praying for you both!Ann-Marie Ulczynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13855303309031758189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604080738678475033.post-68837141008024086062011-12-05T10:23:56.509-05:002011-12-05T10:23:56.509-05:00This is a great idea!

I...I can definetly relate to being a perfectionist. I think that is part of the reason this unemployed thing is so hard for me because I have no control over it and it makes me feel like my life is "un-perfect" if that makes any sense.Beth Anne @ Beth Anne's Besthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10094756369530433566noreply@blogger.com
