What Is Normal?!

Things have been better the past two nights and I'd like to say that things are returning to normal. But then I'd have to define normal and since Jackson was born, that's a little hard. So many changes in such a short time period! Last night Cory and I got Jack to bed a bit earlier than normal, so we got some time to ourselves! We stayed up "late" talking and thinking about how much our lives have changed since we first met eachother. Until Jackson was born the hardest thing we'd been through together was living in Taiwan. We tried to answer the question of which was/is harder, dealing with the stress of living in taiwan, or having Jackson in our lives. i said Taiwan, but really they just aren'y comparable. Daily life in Taiwan wasn't so hard, but the more time we spent there, the worse it got. Whereas with Jackson, some days are horrific, but generally things get better as time goes on. Plus the rewards of having Jackson in our lives already outweighs the "rewards" from life in Taiwan. And one day we are thinking of having another baby, but I'd never think of going back and doing what we did in Taiwan ever again! All in all, I'm thankful for the experiences I've had in my life and with Cory, I just can't wait til this experience is not so tiring!!
