Don't worry. I took this picture while I was stopped at a gas station. I think, I don't remember a Lowe's being anywhere near the bp I get gas at. Anyway, I just needed to announce to the world that for the past month, almost, I have been the mother of two 1 year olds. No, I don't have twins. This period of time is almost to an end. William's second birthday is tomorrow. We are excited to take him to Chuck E. Cheese for his first time. It'll be so much fun. I really can't believe how fast time goes by. At the same time, I can't fathom the fact of them ever growing up because it seems like a day lasts forever! I deal with things that I'm sure every mother has to deal with. Children that won't eat what you give them. Children that can't eat enough of the food you give them. Children that scream at the top of their lungs because they're up and they want you to know it. Children that just sit and play in bed after a nap and when you go to check on them because they've been in bed forever, you wonder how long they've been up. Children that throw temper tantrums. Children that run away from you in a public place (which to the courtesy of Will, I was able to experience that today). I love how other moms just laugh at those moments as well... it's because the mother's know or just happy it's not them. There are certain times in my day where I just want to scream and pull my hair out. But, there are also certain times of my day that I look at William and Lily and think what, not only my world, but the world in general would be like without their little faces. They are special beings that I need to take care of and teach. I deal with all of the crazy things that I listed without hesitation above. I also have the priviledge of having the children that give me kisses and hugs. Children that get so excited when a plane goes by so he can tell me there's a "pla". Children that smiles so big when she knows that she's communicating. Children that come to ME when they get hurt because no matter what it is, my love makes it a little better. I am really excited to have William's birthday tomorrow and to have fun with him. I'm also just a little sad at the fact that although my babies are still young, my time is running out to spend with their little spirits. They bring Matt and me so much joy. Even though I live in the crazy, crazy world of motherhood, there's no where else I would want to be.
