I sort of made a deal with myself the day Ohwee was born, I would put life on hold until April. I struggle with the months of January, February and March even on a good year when I'm not battling post-partum hormones and sleep deprivation. So I did what came natural after delivering a baby for the first time... I sequestered myself as to allow the time needed to enjoy my new bundles of joy. I gave myself two and a half solid months of reprieve from the realities and demands of daily life - beyond just loving on my babes. April 1st was my "back to life" deadline. I'm owning up to my end of the deal... and so it life. Every minute of this month has rocked so far.
Our "back to life" plans today included our first Easter egg hunt for the holiday and visiting eleven baby goats at my sisters house. And I even managed to get all three kids to nap at the same time for three hours and I took advantage of the snuggle time with baby O. If we can continue on this life path, I think I'm going to make a great come back.

| What a beautiful place for these darling babies to play and grow |
