Your Love Will Get Me Through. {23}

I remember after having Lucy, the love was overwhelming. She was my only focus and had my whole heart. When we got pregnant with Jude, I worried I wouldn't love him as much as I love her. It's a thought I'm ashamed of but it was merely out of oblivion. I assumed a heart only had the capacity to hold so much.

Then my heart expanded even more and I can honestly say I love them both equally but in different ways. I'm so lucky to have the chance to experience the mother-son bond as well as the mother-daughter one. I always explain it like this: Lucy is like my best friend in the entire world and my little princess while Jude will always be my sweetheart and my little baby. I feel Lucy is more independent and only needs my guidance but Jude and I connect off each other's existences.

I am one lucky girl. I know this. To find such a caring, lovely, devoted husband at the mere age of eighteen is a miracle in itself. And for him to give me two extensions of that love makes me pinch myself daily.

And may I add that I love how I do not have to edit my children's eyes at all. They have their daddies baby blues.
