This is Real Life...




I've been feeling a bit tired lately with this latest pregnancy and sometimes the reality of having a baby, a VERY active 2 year old and a new little life growing is overwhelming... I've been wishing I was a better mother... that i took the boys to the park more often, read more stories, played more hockey with Isaac... but the revelation that I have come to... (for myself) is that NO ONE will love these kids more than I will, and I don't believe that no matter how great a daycare, babysitter, nanny they will never do a better job raising my kids for that very reason... So today... I believe that ANY sacrifice is worth it to be here at home with my boys... Some days however.... Anyways this is real life... and some days we don't get dressed until noon... some days I let Isaac dress himself and this is what he comes up with... But i do get lots of opportunities for cuddles ... and kisses... and these we try to NEVER miss...
