In the past week (or longer) I've received the same tag, from two different blogging friends.....(Beckie at Little Eblings Academy and Anne at Fidelity and Fortitude) ..
If this was a real tag game, I'd have lost for sure, since it takes me so long to do even the easiest tag! My excuse: our newborn baby is about about 6 or 7 hours every other night, and I spend my days trying to recuperate from the night...but enough excuses, here I am and here's the rules!
Book Meme:
Rules -
- Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages.)
- Open the book to page 123.
- Find the fifth sentence.
- Post the next three sentences.
- Tag five people.
No surprise, one of the nearest books I have laying around is titled "Crying Baby, Sleepless Nights". Here's a good quote for any mom of a newborn from the middle of page 123.....
"Be good to yourself. Your ego may be wobbly because you are fulfilling someone else's needs twenty-four hours a day. You may find yourself exhausted , obsessed with the baby and feeling something less than a human being. What you need is mothering yourself."
It's been so long since I was tagged, I feel like it's too late to tag others - not to mention that it seems this tag is "out there" quite a big already...so I think I'll just end here for today!
