Postpartum Survivor

I just couldn't stay away for the whole summer! Although I've had much going on, I've missed blogging. So, I'm back.

Wow! Postpartum Depression is no joke. I am so thankful to be through the illness. Who knew you could suffer at seven months postpartum? It is a very real, very tough sickness. I have a new appreciation for women who have been through ppd and also other illnesses that affect the emotions and the mind. There is definitely a need for awareness when it comes to these kind of issues. I'm hoping I can be some help and a voice for other sufferers.

I know this may be a little lame...but I wanted to give a "blanket blog" thank you to soooooo many people for prayers, love and support. Both family and friends were and have been amazing through this whole process. Brian and I are getting back to normal life for us. My boys are so good. God knew I would need a couple of easy babies while going through this.

We are getting ready to put Joel into a daycare/preschool a couple times a week. It will be really good for him to socialize and it will be great for me to get some mommy time(well, mommy and Luke time I guess;)). I told Joel about it and he keeps saying, he's "ready to go to school." So cute!

God has been so faithful. I'm feeling truly blessed...even through the trial of it all. God is always good.
