Right now I am working on putting one foot in front of the other. This week is just busy, busy, busy! I had the Family Book Fair at my preschool on Tuesday, we have tickets to see Ms. Taylor Swift tonight, and I am going to see the new Breaking Dawn movie at the 8:00 showing on Thursday. Then the weekend will be filled with frantic packing before we leave for Pennsylvania/DC for one week.
All fun things but still...things. I have to actively engage in all of these activities after working with three year olds for most of the day, doing all my regular mommy work, and trying to be a decent wife to my husband that deserves so much more than he's getting right now.
What I really want to do is curl up in my bed with a boy on each side of me and snuggle my boys while we read books. I want to feel Kate move beneath my hands and bake yummy treats for my family. I want to spend my days reading, making homemade goodies to give as Christmas presents, and get my lovely home in order before the newborn moves in. I want to treasure these weeks of being pregnant for the absolute last time in my life. I want to treasure my time with Nicholas and Luke before I am split in one more direction. I want to have quiet, sweet, snuggly time with my husband before I have another human attached to my body for 24 hours a day.
Now I'm just whining. I'll stop.
The holidays are upon us and we will be focusing on it being a time to celebrate our Savior and to enjoy our family. That is what I want for my family right now.
