My life has changed... again. Now I am the mother of two young children. Now I am feeding two mouths, bathing two bodies, and entertaining two impressionable minds. I am praying, shopping, cleaning, and cooking for a family of four now, and I am enjoying the sounds of two completely different voices, cries, whines, and grumbles. Now I am recognizing two unique smiles and laughs. Now I have a sense of being complete as a family (that is, as complete as we can be without our precious Henry). Now I am the partner in a marriage, and head of a household of four, as I had always envisioned in my mind.
Of all of life's changes, this one feels long-overdue and yet completely unexpected. I may as well savor it, for the only certainty is that it will change again.
