I am feeling very grateful today. It is such a blessing to have these kids and this husband in my life. I cannot tell you how much I enjoy watching Andrew play and learn. Hearing his voice as he works on talking is like the most beautiful amazing music I have ever heard. Seeing Paul T move his tiny body and the feel of his big wet mouth kisses when he pulls my face to his with his tiny fists are all it takes to make my day. I thank the greater powers of the universe for allowing me this experience. The days slip by so quickly and I just cherish every single one as best I can.
Being a parent so far, I am still less than 3 years into this my most important job ever, has been by far the best experience of my life. Meeting and marrying Andy was the best thing I have ever done and to be able to have these great kids with him and share this with him is like the richest icing on the most delicious cake. Only instead of getting full after eating some, this cake makes me hungrier. It makes me want to eat even more, soak up even more of this experience. This family.
Andrew had his tumbling class this morning and we finally remembered the camera! Andy took tons of videos and even got Paul in some. We’ll need to edit these and get them uploaded before I can make some posts with them. I will do it in a few posts. I still have videos of the swimming I need to get to as well. I will try that now. Paul T is sleeping and Andrew is eating with daddy so I have a moment!
The inspiration for this post btw was rocking and nursing sweet Paul T to sleep, and listening to Andrew play in the kitchen with cans and his toys. I felt filled up to bursting with love and gratefulness and then I felt like I wanted more! I had to share that feeling.
Thank you everyone who reads this for sharing in our journey.
