mine

these kids. oh they make me happy. they make me crazy in the brain and have made my breast density decrease by a factor of 5, but mostly they just make me happy.

i love how out of all the kids in the world, i would still pick judah and layla to be mine. obviously if two different sperm had won their races and we had 2 different kids, i wouldnt be sitting here wondering or missing judah and layla because i would have and be happy to be the mom of melkizar and tubal-cain (there are lots of weird sperms names, people. i dont make the rules).

sure there is something primal and inborn that makes us say, "these are MINE and i love them most," but it's awesome when a moment lines up so nicely that makes you say, "even if these werent mine, i'm pretty sure i would still like them best."

gah. how could i not?

i must squeeze him

where would i be without two-year old stances like this. priceless.

  2. Oh I feel you on this. Ezzy just GETS me, and Jack is the sweetest babydude I know; I feel like I won some sort of kid lottery all the time.

  3. The picture of Judah with Layla in growling in the background slays me.
