My baby boys turned six months old last Friday. I can’t believe how time has flown and how far we’ve come. I look back at the photos of my sleepy little guys in the NICU, all hooked up to monitors and IVs and can hardly believe they are the same little guys that now talk, laugh, and roll around. Motherhood has been difficult but rewarding in ways I would never have guessed. There are those trying moments where I’ve been exhausted, frustrated I can’t get someone to sleep, and crying. I look through my tears at the little guy in my arms, thinking “what am I going to do?” and I am greeted with the purest smile. And, just like that everything is all better. I’ve been told by many people that the boys picked me, and I thank my boys often. How lucky am I to be Finnegan and Luca’s mom.
