It’s been *that* kind of week.
Busy. Hectic. Chaotic.
Non stop.

I barely had a second to stop and breathe…

But, that’s what this mothering gig is all about, right?
Learning that never ends…

Creativity and imaginations that go on forever…

Little ones that always need love and attention…

And hearts that will always be full.

One day I’m going to blink and this will all be gone.
And I will miss the days of the busy and hectic and chaotic life that once was.

I am a busy mom of four, trying to keep my head above water as I swim through the sea of testosterone that has taken over our house. I'm a coffee addict and book lover. My family is everything to me and I often write about my journey through motherhood. This blog captures those special moments in life. This life isn’t easy. It’s not always full of sunshine and rainbows. It’s hard. It’s a struggle. But it’s MY life. Welcome to it.

It’s always good to remember in the midst of really crazy times that it won’t always be that way. Enjoy every great moment and I hope you get some rest soon.

Love your hair! You need to be in pictures more.
And aw, that one tear, poor little guy.
I remember what it was like before the boys and I’ll take the crazy and hectic any day. I fear for the days that it won’t be like that anymore.
So good to see you in the pictures!
That picture with your little guy and his tear pulls on my heart!!
That poor little guy with his baby tears.
Did you dye your hair? I seem to remember you saying you had never done that before but now I see what looks like highlights…
But it is all so worth it. When they grow up and begin their own lives you will always have the memories to treasure!
The new hair!! Love!

I love the sentimentality of this post, and the pictures are stunning and really beautifully capture your words.
