It’s a bummer they aren’t having the big event in Indy, though, it was so much fun! I recommend joining the network even if you don’t go to the conferences, though! I love the classes (you get one free class per month with the $10 membership) and there’s a pretty good sense of community on the website through forums. I’ve met a bunch of women through my community group and we pray for each other and encourage each other regularly – which is pretty neat! If you decide to sign up, my referral link is: http://bit.ly/1VjI50Z. 🙂

I think it was also really nice for me to realize that I can leave Clara and she’s fine when I return! I mean, I knew she would be, but now I feel really confident about it… even though she no longer sleeps and it’s driving me NUTS to need to sleep ‘train’ her again! I don’t know how nanny’s do it… it’s tough enough to watch my own kid and I can’t imagine watching someone else’s!

Tim and I still haven’t taken a trip without Clara (because I was waiting until I’m done breastfeeding) but I hope we get to eventually….

Now they’re going to do 2 regional events per year instead of one big event. And I’m sorry to hear about Caleb’s sleep! It’s amazing how any sort of change really messes them up, but at least he’s only up once now! Clara is still waking up around every half hour after 3am and Tim and I are SUFFERING.

I wish I would have known that so I could have tried to find her – even though it was really crazy there. It was truly SUCH a great weekend and I could feel God’s love radiating through every individual I talked to. Does Christine have a blog or online store or anything?
