Four years ago I became a mom to our sweet Kay-bugs, and four short years later I am a mom to three adorable kids.
Being a mom is the best, most fun, and happiest thing I have ever done with my life. I am so lucky I get to be their mom. I love that they trust me to make them happy, to take away their fears and sicknesses, to protect them, to make them feel safe, and to teach them.
And even though I complain about it, I love that I watch "Jake the Pirate" more than "Grey's Anatomy." I go to the zoo more than the mall. I eat at Arctic Circle more often than Olive Garden. I dream about going to Disneyland more than Italy. We talk about "toodling" and diarrhea like it's a normal part of dinner conversations. And I get excited when baby food goes on sale.
I love that Makayla is my best friend and she knows how to do little things to make me smile. I love when Caden ends up in our bed at night because he's scared, and by the morning I wake up to his feet in my face. I love that I haven't had a full night's sleep since Brynnli has been born because I get to hold her and rock her through the night. I love it all because they picked me for their mom and made all my dreams come true.
