Compromises

We have a great cloth diaper package all set up and ready to go. I researched everything, bought what we needed, pre-washed our diapers, got the wipes and wraps ready to go, and then we brought home the babies:

Just the first -- or maybe 3rd or 4th, I don't know -- of many compromises we're already making. Yesterday I ventured out of the house for the first time by myself, for the first time that was somewhere other than the doctor's office. I went to Target. I bought about a hundred diapers and rushed to get home in time for their next feeding. But I had that hour to myself in the car and the store, and that hour kept me human for a day.

I hope they'll always be close.
