Starting a new decade

It's been a busy time in our household, three kids really does take a lot of time away from even the smallest things. T is 4 months old now and I wake up with her smiling and feel so blessed. Eight years ago so much happened and yet here I am today full of happiness and blessings that it overwhelms my heart. The boys are doing so good in school. R absolutely loves school and reading. He is reading at a 4th grade level already, and is above average in so many things. L started reading this summer and we're working on keeping him going. I cherish the fact that I get to stay at home with them, and watch them grow and mature every day. I am so happy that I am at a point in my life where I can do so much for them and I LOVE to do it!

We went to Indiana around my birthday to settle some business with our old house we still own. Had a great relaxing time with just T and my brother. Got to celebrate my birthday in a quiet small way, and finally got to stand before my mother's grave for the first time in 4 years. I came home finally starting to feel like myself again.
Postpartum Depression this time around was and is a scary thing to me. I know I haven't touched the subject here, but I was deeply affected this time around and struggled to let anyone know of my failures out of fear. The medication is starting to work, and the time away from the boys' helped me to calm myself down and get myself mentally in check. I am still praying that I can still maintain where I am at and that I will be back to normal again soon.

So now I'm 30. Hush!
I look back at my 20s and realize that in every year something big happened in my life and my 20s didn't start out so well, but you know what it ended WONDERFULLY!!

20 Finished College and The Towers fell
21 My mom passed away
22 Got terribly sick told we couldn't have babies and was Baptized

24 We bought our first house
25 Had Lucian
26 Left everything and moved to Texas

It was one crazy decade and I am looking forward to the next one!
