Surviving

We've been in survival mode for a long time. I'm kinda over it. I'm attempting to get all my photos organized and while sorting through some today, I could see how much our life has taken a toll on both myself and Cony physically. Sorting through these photos also made me ache for Connecticut fiercely but reminded myself to just be thankful we had such a wonderful experience there... To survive the time of day after nap and before dinner, we spend a lot of time in the girls rooms if we aren't outside. In another attempt to keep a commitment to myself that I would pick up my "real" camera more instead of the trusty iPhone... I decided to start documenting the everyday happy and not so happy moments. These are the days I know I'll ache for when my babies have left me. The moments when Maddie steals my phone and runs to hide, or find her reading a book to her babies or watching Olive crawl and climb on sister- what seems like to purposely annoy her.
