Has It Really Been Six Months?
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.

You look good Lisa; we were glad to see your dad at mom’s funeral; things come with time and so does change and motherhood has come to suit you; glad to see about your bro gettin’ hitched as well this summer. Your dad hasn’t changed and looked well; he came with Herman; hopefully you and the hubby get a chance to spend a bit of a vacation with those boys of yours. I showed mom -some time before she got ill- the earlier pictures of them in the hospital and she read and kept the pieces that you wrote. She did say, that if only Bertha could’ve seen all this with you guys in the States, but I’d remind her that there are a lot of could’a should’a… Anyways, take care of all three of the guys in your household.
