This time home with Emerson has allowed me at lot of time to think about how my life has shaped up so far. The direction Obie and I have chosen to take, and at times, the detours that just led us where we were meant to be. Its odd perhaps that as a young girl I never dreamt of becoming a mother, nor of really getting married at all. (certainly in my mind there were hordes of super cute men falling at my feet- duh) but never in my wildest dreams did I picture 4 little boys sent to me to raise, to love, and ultimately to let go.
These pictures aren't organized, or orchestrated- but they document a smattering of our life. A life never imagined but one that I am so thankful for. Obie and I have been blessed beyond measure, we realize that, even among the agruing and constant reprimands, the punishment and praise. It is where, and with whom, we were meant to be.
Gorgeous! Love the whole smattering...
