Mom of 2

I've had some time to reflect on what its been like these last 3 months of being a mom of two. Here are my first reactions to this new adventure. I love it.  Its hard.  I can't imagine only having one.

I love my job. Being a mom has always been my heart's desire. God granted me the desire of my heart with the birth of my little girl Katie 3 years ago. I didn't know it was possible, but I truly do love Josiah just as much as I love Katie.  Who knew there would be so much room in my heart?  That being said, being a mom of two...is hard. Every day is super tiring. Trying to meet both of their needs while sleep deprived, yeah, that's hard. There is always something, laundry, cleaning, grocery shopping, cooking...the to-do list is never ending. Though life is hard at this stage, I can't imagine what it would be like without Josiah. Brian and I were talking about how much easier life was with just Katie, yet we know that our life is complete with Josiah in it.

Mine is not the only heart that has grown.  All of our hearts have grown. The love we have for each other has grown.  Brian and I love each other more.  Katie is definitely in love with her little brother.  We can even see how Josiah loves his big sis.  Watching the two of them laugh at each other and make each other smile makes my heart happy.  How could I have a life with only one?

I'll end with some fun pictures of us enjoying the recent snow.  Only a few inches, but enough to enjoy!
