6 months later.... catching up with Emilia

Wow! Six months since my last post. Where does all my time go??? My former working mom self would have thought that the stay at home mom would have ALL the time in the world to do things like this. My former working mom self was wrong! My day is exhausting. And I don't have time for much of anything. Worst of all, I feel like I don't spend more than enough time with Emilia!

Our day starts in a whirlwind of getting three kids fed, dressed and out the door to take Emilia to kindergarten. Which she LOVES. I run around with the twins and before I know it, it's time to pick Em back up from school. Feed everyone lunch, get the twins down for nap, put the house back together (so it can be undone after nap), cook dinner ..... before I know it the twins are up and I feel like I have barely spent anytime with my Emmy! But she is amazingly patient.

Emilia helps me clean, helps me cook, does her homework, reads to her brother and sister. She even loves to help out with Anna's therapy.  She might be the brightest, sweetest girl I know. Ian and I couldn't be proud of the girl she has become. And her brother and sister could not have been blessed with a better big sister!
