Wow, I cannot believe that my little boy is turning 4. Four years ago today he was in my tummy. Warm and cozy. Now he's sitting next to me on the couch screaming at zombies and yelling for Francis to help him up!! (hidden xbox joke) He amazes me all the time with the knowledge he acquires. He was signing "I spy with my little blue eye" at the breakfast table. He can sing the alphabet song all the way, minus k and making lmno one letter. haha just like most kids. I gave him a mohawk the other day and he HATED it, telling me it was bad. Mohawks are bad, mama. He's so different from Nessa, who at random times brings me combs and hairspray to do her hair. He took his time learning to talk, or rather talking out loud in front of others. Nessa has too.


I'm not exactly sure what this post is about, but I am so thankful for each day that I have shared with these two amazing little people. Everyday has been blessed and I couldn't imagine my life without them. Not for a single moment. They are more than just my world, they are my everything. I love every part of being a mom, every part. Even the runny noses, dirty diapers, missing bobbis (pacifiers) and hurling projectile throw up at 3 in the morning. I never knew I was made for this, and I thank God that he let me be about of their lives. Let me be their mommy. Its more than I ever thought possible. Not with me, not with my childhood and the way I was raised. I never thought I wanted kids. How crazy was it when I asked Franco if we could have another a year after Vinnie was born. CRAZY! But he was such an amazing baby and I wanted a little girl, a beautiful girl who would look like her father, with long brown curly hair. And again, I got so much more than I imagined. SO much more. I laugh through my tears at her right now standing on my kitchen table dancing her tamberine, smiling with her crooked gap teeth. She is way more than I ever could have imagined my little girl. I am more than Blessed.


I only have them little for so long, and I plan on enjoying everyday of it!
