It's funny how time seems to blur sometimes. This is Skylar at seven weeks old—just last week—and I swear, every time I look at him, I feel like I've been here before. I guess it’s because each of my children has felt so familiar, even though they’re completely unique in their own ways.
Looking back at Brayden at the same age feels surreal. There’s something about those tiny fingers, the way they clutch onto everything, and those wide, curious eyes staring up at you as if the world itself is a mystery waiting to unfold. And then there’s my third little love, who’s already bringing chaos and joy in equal measure.
Oh, my boys—you're my heart walking around outside my chest. Watching them grow, seeing their personalities emerge—it’s magical. One minute they’re asleep in my arms, the next they’re splashing around in the pool like little mermaids. Seriously, these kids could live in water if I let them. They're obsessed. Constantly asking, "Can we go swimming again?" It's exhausting but honestly, it’s one of the best parts of being a mom.
Speaking of chaos, let me tell you about the "Fish playroom." Yes, you read that right. My boys decided that instead of jumping into the pool, they wanted to create their own aquatic paradise inside their room using baskets of water. Now, I’m not sure how they managed to get the water out of the baskets, but somehow it ended up all over the floor. I found myself laughing while trying to clean it up. When my husband walked in and saw the scene, he gave me one of those looks—the kind that says, "Are you okay?" But I couldn’t stop laughing because it was just so… them.
And now here I am, standing on the edge of the pool, ready to drag them out because we’ve got places to be in twenty minutes, and they’re still happily submerged. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind staying here forever, but life has other plans, doesn’t it?
This morning feels like a gift, though. The sun is shining, and the kids are happy. I keep reminding myself to savor these moments, even the chaotic ones, because they won’t last forever. Today feels like a mini Christmas—full of laughter, love, and a touch of organized chaos.
^^ That face! Pure mischief.
