I Hope There Aren't Hormones in Heaven

These postpartum blues stink. And I couldn't help thinking today that I hope there won't be hormones in heaven. Life would be so much easier without them!! 

And I hope we won't need sleep either. 

I think you could probably trace almost every unkind thing I've ever said back to lack of sleep or hormones. And you could definitely trace every tearful breakdown to one of the two. That sounds like I'm not taking responsibility for my actions, but really-- I think in heaven it will be a lot easier to be peaceful and happy because we won't have these mortal ailments to deal with.

Amen to that! Hope it gets better soon!

Ha ha, I was just about to write, "Amen to that!" and then I looked over and saw Julie's comment. We must be cousins or something. My mom always says, "You girls are pretty enough, what you need is personality sleep!" It is all too often true. I hope you start feeling better.

We must all be cousins! Oh wait, we are. Luckily the hormones go away fast, but the sleep never returns (for me at least). Bless our husbands, every one.

Sarah, I totally feel you. Sleep deprivation always depresses me. Throw hormones on top of that, and I'm a mess. Call me if you ever want to chat.

You're an amazing mom! And you're stronger than you think. You will be just fine! I love you!

I am willing to bet you are a whole lot nicer with lack of sleep than I ever will be! Hope you get some much needed sleep soon and things start to look up!
