Last night, our bed was overly-full with kids as we sat down and relaxed, watching Leave it to Beaver. Throughout the night, we had a few pop-ins from kids with nightmares and various "dire" needs. Today, my big kids are off to school and the littlest hugs me so sweetly and tightly. I just wrote a note to John, and realized that soon, our team of kids will be 9, 7, 6, and 2.
To the woman I met this week who wondered if four children was a death wish: It really isn't. It's a wild and crazy ride...and it's not for everyone. But from where I stand, being a mom to four kids like mine is a pretty beautiful thing. I wish I had known how to convey that to you in our brief interaction this week.
