I Waited All These Years...

Throughout my grade school and college years, I always felt like something was missing in my life.  Maybe my soulmate or maybe a different vocation or perhaps I chose the wrong path when a bend in the road was presented to me.  I never knew what it was that was causing this emptiness in a small space in my heart.  But I knew that there had to be more to life than textbooks, late-night studying, 9-hour work shifts, 8am classes..

Well, God wasn't ignoring me.  He had to reserve a special space in my heart:  for my husband, soulmate, and best friend... and later for two baby boys.  God just knew one wouldn't be enough!

I absolutely positively undeniably cannot express in words how my life has changed since these two were born.  I never knew I could learn how to be a mom...especially to twins.  It took a lot of tears, pain, sickness, and effort to truly start feeling like a mom.  But it came quickly and I learned quickly.

Yes, I love every second of it.  And I wouldn't change a thing.

My heart is happy.

 Max being all perky and happy that he can sit up while on his belly.

 Leo tried the hat and obviously loooooved it.  

 Max found a new comfy position.
