I am really enjoying being a mom of 3. Much more than I thought I would. That sounds horrible to say, but honestly, I was scared to death. Luckily my kids are amazing, which makes my job so much easier! Sam is pretty darn nearly perfect, which is also kind of scary to me, because it makes me wonder if something is going to go wrong. Does that make sense? He is saying "hi" already, I swear. The pediatrician even heard it. He talks up a storm.
I love the place my life is at right now. I wouldn't have asked for kids this close in age, and there are certainly times when it makes things logistically complicated. But I love watching them together, and I feel like they will be good friends. They seem to really love each other already. Vivian is so sweet with Sam, it is adorable. She gently bumps her little head against his and kind of rubs it around. She follows Grace around and tries to copy things she does. And Grace, well, she is learning to be much more gentle with her little sibs. She is just so enthusiastic, and she REALLY wants to be able to carry them around.
Maybe it's just getting the pregnancy hormones out of my system, or maybe it's that being in the hospital gave me a subconscious new outlook on life. But I feel like I appreciate the kids a lot more now, and I want to enjoy them while they're young. I thought I did before, but it just feels different lately somehow. I am so grateful for my good life!

Going through a medical crisis with children did change my outlook for sure. Glad things are so well with you guys. That boy is the perfect mix of his parents! :)
