Blessed


I'm happy. Really happy. No particular reason, I guess. But I love my family. I'm proud of my husband. He works so hard, and it's a labor of love. I love my girls. Kate is so funny, and she's really starting to "get it." She went a whole day yesterday and controlled her emotions - when she wanted to get upset, she didn't. It was sweet to watch her process in her head, "I want this, but I'm not going to freak out even though I can't have it." Kate started swimming lessons today - I was so proud of her. She's cautious, but she jumped in and despite drinking the pool, she said being brave was her favorite part. Ellis is dying to talk. She's saying words already - dada, mama, kaitlyn, thank you, gandma, papa, no, yes. She's such a cutie. I just love her up. She's made of sweetness - full of honey, I think. I'm blessed. Sometimes really tired, and blessed with every moment.
