Life as a working mother of 3 kids under age 5 is tiresome, crazy, sometimes stressful, amazingly wonderful, and truly blessed. Some things have gone to the way side...like this blog. So in honor of Dawn, who bugs me incessantly about it, here is a post just for her. One post a year is okay, right?
Megan just graduated preschool and will be headed off to Kindergarten at the "big school" in August. I can't believe this time has come already. She is a smart kid and reminds me daily how much she knows already. She is a great big sister...most of the time. You can tell the twins miss her when she's not here because of how quiet the house is. I truly adore her and who she is becoming. At graduation they asked her what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said "a big sister and the President." Get ready world because her she comes!
Will and Sarah are 9 months old now. They have very different personalities. Will is strong, determined, focused...just like his mama. He started belly crawling early and is now working on getting his knees into the game. He pulls himself up to a standing position and then hesitates on what to do next. He will probably be an early walker. Sarah is quiet, laid back, with an amazing smile...just like her daddy. She could care less that Will is running circles around her. She just sits back and laughs. She is a snuggler, pulls hair (hers, mine, Megan's...), and giggles at almost everything. They are both amazingly good babies and we are truly fortunate to have them in our lives.
I keep thinking I will get better at capturing the moments around us and writing down the fun things we've done each day or that have happened but like most things, the day disappears on me. I guess I need to start channeling my inner-Ali.
PS. Once funny tidbit today...Megan is totally into Star Wars and handed Sarah her light saber. She starts laughing and saying "Look Mom she's my Paduwan!" Megan thinks she a Jedi Master so of course Sarah must be a Paduwan!
