Today it's been 20 months since this little boy was placed in his daddy's arms in the OR.
It's been 20 months since I became a mother of three.
It's been 20 months since my little boys became BIG brothers.
Being a mother of three has good, really good, days. And then there are days when I feel it. sigh. Days where I feel the needs of these three boys and I feel inadequate. Sometimes all day long, I go back and forth and back and forth among them. Change Wyatt, wipe Jack, help Logan... Scold Wyatt, read to Logan, listen to Jack... Over and over I meet one need, only to be confronted by another.
But I am doing it. And it's going really well. I am so grateful.
This time last year I had been in Marshall for a month.
I was still unpacking. I was still settling. I was still in shock.
And the year before that, I was suffering as a working mom (more on that tomorrow) and praying daily that the Lord would find a way, make a way, for me to be home.
And so, in this month of love, I am looking back on my journey to NOW,
and I am loving every step along the way.

As we approach his second birthday, I am getting more excited about getting to know him.
I can't wait to hear more of his little voice expressing who he is.
(And just for fun, here's a picture of Jack & Logan at twenty months.)
