Six years and one day ago, my family consisted of two people, just Frink and I.
Six years ago to the day, two became three.
It's funny how the addition of just one teeny, tiny person changed everything. One day earlier, I thought I knew who I was and what I was doing. That day I knew nothing. I didn't know up from down, left from right. I just put one foot in front of the other and muddled through the best I could.
Three eventually became four. I had successes and spectacular failures. I learned. I grew.
Mornings where I just wanted to throw in the towel and run away led to afternoons of laughter. I think nothing of sneaking around the store like a ninja. Stories I have heard over and over again become gloriously new when read to me by my child. My house may never be clean. I may not get a shower every day. I won't know what I am doing more often than not. But I know who I am. I am a mom. I am part of an amazing, crazy, perfect family. Just Write
