It's March? When did that happen? I guess today, since it's 12:24 AM and I'm still up. I seem to have a small case of insomnia, lately. I stay up, reading, surfing, and laughing at the contents of the internet. I make bows. I make lunches and pack diaper bags. I think about what the next day holds. But, mostly I just spend time with myself...something I have never really liked doing. I love being surrounded with the people I love and the ones that love me. But, I don't think its a coicidence that I get to have these hours of alone time - even if it is at the cost of me sleeping. It's a time for me to sit by myself and remind myself of how lucky I am to be the mother to the two best babies in the world and the wife to an amazing husband. I look forward to these hours every day: when I don't owe anyone a thing, the chores are complete (or not, in most cases - but I at least came to a stopping point), and I can just do whatever I want to do. The truth is, I miss my kids when they are in bed. Heck, I miss my husband when he is sleeping on the couch beside me. It's amazing how you long for what you don't have. I better hurry off to bed so I can wake up to another day of this life. Darius Rucker said it perfectly: "It won't be like this for long..."
