Winter Wonderland




Last week landed us with a 7 inch snowfall....nice to look at, not fun to remove. Jack went on his first sledding experience above, please ignore my husband's plumber's crack. J sleeps with the baby angels. Jack is talking to 'his' babies and teaching them the colors of their butterfly mobile. This picture is the first one where I have all three of them in the frame, I think it's just priceless.
The early days with the twins have not been easy and Jack has had some issues adjusting. But I received an email from an old college friend this weekend.....he and his wife are having fertility problems, which is so hard. I remember back to those bad old days for me and it is truly hard to believe that I've come from a terrible relationship without any hope for a family to having three kids and a wonderful husband within a six year time span. I had a lot of arguments in those days about whether or not having a family is worth the sacrifice, etc., etc., what is the right life choice? I made a risky one to go it alone and chose the family and it worked. And I was right, it is the most rewarding experience I've ever had. So, my fingers are crossed for my friends. Family life is a long journey, but it's a rich one.
