Well.....I am laying here next to my sweet little girl who is fast asleep in Mommy's bed, preparing myself for the emotions of tomorrow...Jude will be 1 years old! I just remember this time last year and all the preparations taking place. Dylan had just started school and it would be her first day of "extended day", my Mom had her schedule and was ready to take over, and Matt and I were excited!
I remember the first words out of my mouth when he was born were "he looks like my Dad'.....those must have been good drugs I was on because clearly he is the spiting image of Matt! It is so amazing how I remember almost every detail of this time last year, yet months 1 - 12 are a complete blur. It is different with two. And I will say, it has been a journey having a boy and a girl. With the exception of 1 friend, most of my close circle of friends have same gender children....and while it is fun.....there are challenges. This is my second and most things are more relaxed because I have been here before, the truth is it is like being a first time parent (to a different gender) all over again. These are big difference people!!!!!!
I can not wait to wake up tomorrow and sing to Jude with Dylan and watch him look at amazement with his big beautiful blue eyes and sweet dimple. I am in awe of the relationship they have created in 1 short but very fast year. Well....we will see how I hold up tomorrow!
