OH MY!!! I have 6 children living in my house!
Last night I took all the kids to Madeline and Dottie's basketball game all by myself because Eric was at the elementary school signing Emma up for kindergarten(I cant believe she is old enough for Kindergarten :( but I digress) All of a sudden as we were walking back to the car with Emma, Dottie and Maddie holding hands, Donald pushing the stroller with Jack in it and me carrying Annie...it dawned on me, this huge epiphany... I am responsible to raise these SIX children. Its strange how 5 didn't seem like so many but now six wow. Now that thought should probably be frightening but instead it made me giggle 6 kids how ever did I get so lucky? Why did God entrust these wonderful little people to me? I thought about it for most of the evening. All those faces, all those personalities, all those needs, all those different likes and dislikes I pray that I am up to the task and can be the mother that these babies deserve. Luckily I do not intimidate easily and I am certain I can do this, I just need to learn to stop expecting perfection from myself and just give it my best. SO this is my journey...
