I feel a bit like I'm one of those little kids who sees the deep end of a pool. It seems exciting and adventuress and all the cool kids are over there. They are making it look so easy, and they seem to be having so. much. fun. I know that I'm not a good swimmer, but I'm sure I'll be fine. So instead of slowly wading over, I jump right in. And it's awesome. I'm in the middle of the deep end, exactly where I wanted to be.
Then my arms and legs start to get tired, and now I'm barely treading water. The panic starts to kick in and I think to myself, " What was I thinking?????" People are starting to look at me with worried faces. They wonder why such a little girl who has no idea what she's doing is trying to swim the in deep end all by herself. I'm in way over my head. I don't know how to swim like them - I can barely float.

yeah, I'm so there right now.
Now he seems very happy to be treading water.
( And no silly, I did not take this picture. When was the last time you saw me swimming in the ocean with a piglet??)

Allison -
You have such talent! I can't tell you how many compliments we've gotten on the pictures you took of our family. While the logistics can be overwhelming, don't let them get in the way of your dream.
Time management is my specialty (4 kids will do that to you!). If it would help you talk through some of our tricks, let me know.
Keep up the great work.
