Type-A Mom has a new look! Check out the new site! We're also hiring writers!

School has started and both of my kids are there now. My daughter has started grade six...this is her second year in middle school. And my son is starting kindergarten. They are both in different schools. I didn't realize how much juggling I will have to do for them. Having parent teacher conferences in different schools and having different paperwork.

I have already started two separate file folders for them. One for her and one for him. My son only has half days which are a pain because you really can't get anything accomplished in the time he is gone. I have been resorting to not eating my lunch until he is gone. It's so nice and peaceful eating it without being disturbed.

But sometimes the silence bugs me. The last time I said that I wanted to get pregnant again. I couldn't handle the thought of my daughter growing up and not needing me. So I got pregnant again. But now my writing is taking off and there is no way that we would be able to do it. And there is that matter of me not having a uterus anymore which probably is a big factor! I just have to get used to this feeling and start enjoying the quiet time. How hard is it to let go? I think that is the hardest thing I have to do. Let go....
