Sometimes I wonder how I have FOUR kids. Granted my youngest is only six months but really! How did this happen? I know how THAT happened.... I just never get a chance to look at my life in my own shoes. I mean, Take a good hard look at where I am and where I am going. I change diapers, make bottles, clean finger prints off of everything, pick up and drop off, help with homework, make dinner, and wait until I have 2 seconds to say hello to my husband.
Ten years ago I would have told you I was never going to have kids. I was busy and wild and traveling the country. I was goal oriented and career minded. I never babysat and I thought kids were loud and annoying. Some things never change but now the loud and annoying kids are mine and they are all I think about. I can't imagine where I was ten years ago and what I was doing six months ago, before there were FOUR. There is nothing better then tucking them into bed at night, one at a time, getting hugs so tight it squeezes the air out. Closing down the house, turning off the lights. Those few awesome moments when the silence is comforting, just before my husband starts to snore.
