I am not going to try and recap the past year either... when people do that I admire them for the effort and then proceed to skip to the next blog because I feel time is limited and spending two hours reading up on someone's life is probably not where I want to allot that time. I'm gonna assume the same for anyone out there reading this and just carry on...
What I would actually like to do is take a moment to say I am truly grateful to be my three girls' mom. I am not the best mom in the world... pretty far from actually... but I sure do feel a huge amount of gratitude that I get to try every day to do right by them. I am not going to lie... I was a waaaay better mom when I just had my older two. I seemed to have more patience and time... and probably sleep... but I sure am glad Ava decided to make her arrival in our lives. I am not going to try and make excuses for my shortcomings, I have them, I need to work on them and there is no good reason to have them. However, I was granted this huge blessing to be their mom and to be this example for them and I felt like I needed to acknowledge that despite the fact I have lots to work on, I go to bed every night fully aware of the awesomeness that is my life as a result of them!
