My Babies are One

I can't believe the twins are one today. This past year seems like such a blur to me. I remember reading on another twin mom's blog about how quickly the first year goes with twins. It all kind of jumbles together: midnight feedings, NICU time, RSV, crying, crying, crying, sleep deprivation. There were some really beautiful moments too.  I remember the incredible feeling of holding not just one but TWO babies in my arms for the first time. I remember the first time Mac and Morgan smiled at each other. I remember looking back while driving and seeing three beautiful faces. There is no doubt that this past year has been one of the most physically and mentally challenging of my life, but it has also been incredibly amazing. It was overwhelming most of the time.... it was hard a lot of the time... some days I wanted to run away. Looking back though I would do it all again to be where I am today. Most days my life runs pretty smoothly now. I am enjoying my children more and more as they are growing, learning, and just generally becoming more fun. My Morgan is such a little love. My easiest child by far. She is so physical and into absolutely everything. My Mac is my boy. My one and only boy and for that he will always hold a soft spot in my heart. He is much more reserved than his sisters. This boy has it cut out for him being that he is surrounded by girls! I am so grateful for my sweet children. The time goes to quickly with them. I know one day they will be grown and leave me and it breaks my heart to think about it. I am trying to enjoy every day with them and truly cherish the sweet spirits they are.
