Learning to Surrender

Last night I think both Kel and I have finally, after 11 weeks of having a baby, realized we may not be in control of our own lives anymore and might just have to pay attention to needs other than our own. We have tried three times now to 'go out' to our favorite eatery/watering hole despite the mood our daughter currently may be in. Twice now we have had to leave with our sweet 'B' screaming her lungs out with nothing left in our powers to soothe her. Kelly, last night, even had people (i.e. older women) approaching him asking if they could help out the situation. That sure didn't make it better, so he quickly put her in the car seat and left the restaurant...
Slowly we are learning or have now learned that our social lives are changed forever. Brinnon determines our schedules and you know what, that is perfectly okay with both of us. We have learned to surrender.
Here is a video I got this morning after we dropped Dad off at work.
