It was terrible. And it was amazing.
But we survived.
And I never knew how much love I could have for two tiny human beings. I also never realized how completely exhausted I could be and still function. If that’s not the definition of parenthood I don’t know what is.
The boys are growing like weeds.
Swimming lessons.
Guitar lessons, singing lessons.
Overdue library books all the time.
Doctors. Therapists.
Cars everywhere.
Taco Tuesday. Pizza Friday.
No two days are the same.
We have made progress.
But we still have so far to go.
Adoption is hard.
It is beautiful and it is tragic.
We are not lucky. Our boys are not lucky.
But we are a family. Forever.
