Hello Stranger!

Wow...so I am not the best at keeping up with a blog- or could it be my discovery of Facebook and all it entails? Probably a combination of the two. Further is learning the balance of being a wife, a mother, and an entrepreneur...not an easy task! Did I mention that I am pregnant?

So with a baby who just turned 1 (yes, that made me weepy), and a new baby coming in just...ooh 76 days (but who is counting), and a business in the pangs of its first year, I sometimes, er, most times, don't know which way is up.

But since this Blog is called Tatum Tales, let me focus on the motherhood part. What an amazing 1st year!! Each day, each month, each stage, I think, "wow, she just can't get any cuter", and then each day she does! I don't know if this is really her or just that each day my love grows even deeper. But it has been such an incredible year of growth and development, it truly blows my mind. From her first little cry to almost walking and every gurgle, tooth, cry, smile, drool, fall, crawl, snuggle, snore, bore, scream, laugh, chase, roll, discover, hide, and hug in between, has me with a smile on my heart most of the time.

In the quiet, those brief moments, if I am able to really slow down my brain and tap into His will, I feel I have been called to a higher purpose, beyond the business, beyond the bills, but entrusted to care for not one, but now two, baby girls. Wow...I am humbled. And though I have not quiet gotten used to my new shoes, or sometimes admire those fancy shoes over there, I wouldn't have it any other way. I love my baby girls. Now, I need a nap.
