I've forgotten lately what it's like to be a separate person.
My thoughts, actions and physical well-being are so consumed by living and breathing children that I can count on two hands the number of minutes I have each day to devote to nurturing my self.
It's ridiculous, really, but I know this is a season and as soon as I get that time back for myself, moments like these will also be a thing of the past.

That photo is a treasure!
ReplyDeleteI have been especially loving your posts since your littlest man was born: each one reflects what I've been feeling and going through since #3 arrived in our house, that blend of pandemonium and being overwhelmed -but also astonishingly blessed- all at the same time.
Oh, thank you for reading these posts and sharing your thoughts, Lenae. Pandemonium is a great word to describe this life. It's certainly that and that's been surprising to me.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sassy new haircut you have. I like it a lot!
beautiful picture that captures so much. More kids is crazier, but I wouldn't trade it either for the abundance of love!
ReplyDeleteI love that picture! Your family seems so sweet, and your obvious joy in them -- even sweeter :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful picture, but Sir H always looks so serious... I am sure he will get that cute Gamiz smile soon!!! Love it!!!

By the way glad to see you back:)
Yes, beautiful picture. I love your dreamy expression. You have the cutest kids ever. And I'm so glad you are devoted to them and find joy in being their mama.
