Moving forward

It's a busy time around our house. Out of town travelers will be arriving this Friday but before that we have a quick trip to make up to Reims on Thursday in preparation for Maximilien's baptism on the 21st.  As much as I could just let myself be sad and let life pass me by I get up every morning sometimes 2-3 times in the wee hours to tend to my son. The grogginess fades away when I see his little face and his arms reaching out to me. My heart swells with love for this little human being. As hard as things are right now, I wouldn't change anything in this world for what I have today.

Life moves on like it or not... and I have to go with it. I just need to remember to go slow and not let myself get overwhelmed. And allow myself time to feel everything I need to feel. And in the meantime enjoy precious moments like this:

In our own ways we are all moving forward even if it's only one scoot at a time.

You are doing fabulously. I am sure that your mom is up there watching you with a big smile across her face. She is so proud of you! You are not incomplete, you are a part of that circle of life. That wheel that keeps turning, petit à petit just like the Price Is Right wheel as it gets close to the dollar sign. You have hit the jackpot: wonderful family, husband, son, a great attitude, intelligence, people who love you and you treat everyone so kind and with your heart. You are part of the puzzle of life and with you our lives are complete.
