I look at my girls, and I just sigh... How did I manage to have not one, but two beautiful, fun, and silly girls? Some days, I think back to my life before motherhood. The idea of being able to sleep in, or sleep through the night, or just sit and relax for extended periods, or jet off on road trips unplanned, or spend an entire day running around without mapping out bathroom runs, feeding time, and naps... It seems like such a luxurious existence. To be completely honest, for a split second I'm jealous of that life style. Then Talullah looks into my eyes and says "I loooove you, mommy!" or Berlyn cracks her toothy smile and the drool runs from her head to her toes. I can only wrap them both in my arms and squeeze them tight. I have no idea who I would even be without them. They bring me so much joy. Thank you, darling daughters, for the amazing life you have given me.
