i know it's old news to everyone, but back at the end of may june finished up with the bottle. this might not seem like a big deal, but let's remember that it not only marked the end of june's time as a baby, but our time with babies. yep. after 11 years of bottles i'm proud to say devan and i have finally graduated from something (cause it isn't poopy diapers i can tell you that)! we take what we can get and enjoy the little bits of progress here and there.
to tell the truth i don't miss having a baby at all. i loved all my babies and have especially been grateful to have learned to love having to take care of babies with these last two. with the first three i just endured that first year for the most part. i'm not a real baby momma. i prefer them a little more self-reliant. but with isaac and june i think God gifted me the understanding that it was nearly over and i better just snuggle more and smell them more and love them up as little ones. that gift has left me feeling good to be moving on without any regrets or wishes to do it again. it was great and now it's done. thanks and thanks again.
a friend told me once (at a very pivitol time in my life) that she had met women that regretted not having children, but had never met a woman that regretted having children. with five there is no room to regret not having had enough ;).
