FAMILY DOWNLOADED

When I look at my children I think to myself... yes... there they are... I did it.
I'm not going to lie though. When I look at baby pictures, especially of Adriana who is now eight years old, I always cry. I go through a million emotions. The newborn phase went slowly with my first, but it was over in a heartbeat with my second and third. Life in general seemed to take a fast forward approach when our family started growing. I almost feel like I have been living in a bubble for the past eight years.

At times I doubt my self and this job takes its toll on me but I am super grateful to be able to do this, thanks to Roman. Luckily me staying at home with the kids is something we agreed on and I haven't had any rush to put our kids in daycare. Adriana, for example, was home most of the time before officially starting school and now looking back, we are both so happy we got to spend that special time together. I will continue keeping both of my youngest home, until they feel ready to start daycare, but that is something I will not force on them.

It is really bitter/sweet for me to see our children grow up. Years seem to fly by and what makes me the saddest, is that I will never get to experience that special time with any of my babies again. But it is so cool to see them grow up every year. Daily life just seems getting easier, the bigger they get. I feel like all of my babies are here now. Our family is complete... I am complete.
