Elisa's Diary EntriesDiary Navigation: |
February 2, 2000
Sorry to have missed my entry last week. I can't tell you how busy we've been, both professionally and personally. It's exhausting! Balancing work and family is probably the toughest thing on me. I feel torn on both sides. The satisfaction I get from building iParenting is immense! But the time I spend on it and away from our kids leaves me feeling torn, with lots of mommy-guilt. The time spent with our children is magical -- yet there are moments when I have a great idea for the sites and want to implement it right away. Parenting: the toughest job you'll ever love, right? Sigh.
The girls are trying their best to walk! Julianna has taken about five steps in a row, and Cassandra is getting steadier on her feet every day. The pride I feel is staggering. Kind of silly to others, maybe, but to me -- the best!
Hope you all are doing well.
