get better at keeping in touch with people who are important to me

I did finally send a thank you card, to my mother-in-law, for watching Aidan, and for visiting and helping so much. I need to send more…

And my husband has already stowed them away in a drawer. Some in-laws just visited us and they were a big help in cleaning, watching the kids, and generally just being the awesome people they are. I NEED TO SEND THOSE THANK YOU CARDS.

I realized that my time was so limited after my third child was born recently. And I kept asking myself why I wasn’t staying in touch with people. But then I realized half of my friends were friends that wanted to be close to me, but not vice versa.

Rule of thumb from now on: do not accumulate friends like old high school sports trophies. For me, a close circle of just a few is all I can handle right now. This will helps me stay in touch with people more.
