As Ella lays here snoozing I can't help but think about how much has changed the past three months. I can't say things have been easy, because they haven't been, but I am learning to appreciate the newness every week brings. Ella slept 11 hours last night and so did I and Avrie and Quinn. I have no clue when that happened last and even though I woke up with a headache, I decided to appreciate that we got to sleep well to help keep off any illnesses that might be trying to worm their way into our systems. Ella is not only smiling now she is starting to giggle and play. She loves to look out and see what is happening around her. She still loves to snuggle up though and often enough when you give her the pacifier she immediately lays her head down on your shoulder and seems to say "Ahhh, thanks Mama". I didn't know if I could handle being a mom of 3 and it still scares me when I think about the teenage years or any year inbetween for that matter, but I can't help but feel so complete with our 3 girls. It feels right and it feels like this is just the life we were supposed to have. I know it will contine to change and there is so much in the future that I don't know about, but I have my girls and Rob and I'm going to take it day by day and just hold on to the fact that I am where I am supposed to be, doing what I am supposed to do.
