Baby Number 3! Im sure that many who followed this blog have noticed that I seldom write anymore on here..... Well let me tell you that Baby Number 3 was a brave and crazy decision we made! The last 18 months have been SO exhausting! So many moments that have warmed my heart, made me want to pull my hair out and at times driven me to the edge of insanity. Our baby girl Chancie has found her perfect little place in our family. She is incredibly needy as most toddlers are...yet, she has really stepped up to the role of Big Helper as many siblings who have a brother or sister with special needs do. Seldom do I remember who I was before I became a mom. That young 21 year old girl seems like such a figment of my imagination most days. The only person I have come to recognize is an over worked, passionately loving woman with a tendency towards burning herself out. Though I can genuinely say I wouldnt change anything. Though if given the power I may add a few more hours to my day and hijack the system at my bank and add a few extra zeros to my account. Some days I think I am absolutely crazy to have taken on one more thing with an overwhelming plate already, but then I remember that I am a Go Big or Go Home kind of gal. My hubby and I are playing tag team all hours of the day. Raising 3 kids.... age 12, 8 and 18 months (all our children together) can make it seem like parenting will NEVER end for us. No doubt because of Stage our job of being parents will truly never end. But thats okay, it is what it is. Stage has been in a fairly good place these days. I have accepted that he will never be pain free 100% and that we will never be able to provide for him 100% all that he needs. And while that is not okay with me, I must learn to accept it. All in all our life is a good one. By no means perfect, but it is our life. My husband is amazing and I cant imagine a life without him. I am thankful to have him as my rock as this last couple years has felt overwhelming at times and there were days when I felt broken and defeated, but his love and patience never wavered. Im looking forward to 2015! This is my year to accept, let go and love
