Here is a question I posed to Andy today:
Since when did I become that mother that drives a minivan, picks up carpool and shops at Walmart during the day when her child is in school?? I don't feel like I'm old enough to be "that mom"!! I'm freakin' out!

I wonder that about myself all the time. Let me know if you find an answer, would ya!
I am right there too!
It happened between the time you welcomed two wonderful heavenly spirits into your home and assumed primary responsibility for them in the most formative time of their existence. It happened between midnight feedings and cleaning up vomit. It happened when you woke up in the middle of the night just to check that they were breathing and with each tear of joy and pain as you watch them grow. It will keep happening as you lug them to school, sports, and music, and as you struggle with their headstrong willfulness, their fears, and their triumphs. And someday, they'll look back and know what Andy probably already knows. That you are the most wonderful thing in their lives.
I'm there too! Yesterday I spent 6 hours cleaning out my minivan (gasp!). Oh well, at least we're still cool...right?
