I’ve had a rough couple of weeks, but sometimes I feel like Chad has had it just as rough. But he’s been a great cuddle buddy while I do my IV therapy and will play Fruit Ninja with me when we get bored. He’s had to be pretty independent lately but is learning to do so many things on his own. I love you, Chad! You’re the best big brother and my favorite 3 year old! #peanutwitt

🍂Falling hard for our little pumpkins🍂 WITT TWINS arriving Spring 2019 🧡🧡

26 • The year between my 25th and 26th birthday has been the hardest year of my life. I’m so grateful for these 3 for helping me get through it. I have a feeling that this year is going to be one of the best ones yet! 🖤 Thank you for all the birthday wishes- I feel so loved!

It’s been an emotional 24 hours. We came to the conclusion to pull Chad out of preschool and wait until next year. So much sadness surrounded this decision. I felt like I let Chad down by not being able to help him overcome his social anxiety. I felt like I had failed as a parent as I see so many other moms who have children the same age as Chad send their kids off to preschool and have them come home excited to return. What did I do wrong as a parent to make it so Chad was the only kid who didn’t thrive at preschool? Seeing Chad struggle broke my heart. I got a glimpse of what it feels like to not know how to help your child, to watch them struggle, and to not know what is best for them, all while wanting them to have the best experience possible and wanting them to have just as much fun as everyone else. For a split second, I wished Chad was like every other kid and wanted to go to school. But then I realized he wouldn’t be the same, and I love my Chad. He is smart, wild, empathetic, funny, and LOVES spending time with his little brother and Mom...and I really hope that never changes. Here’s to you, Chad, for being bold enough to express your feelings, even when they aren’t mainstream. I’m lucky to be raising such a genuine and outspoken soul. I hope I can continue to be the Mom and advocate he needs.

Today was Chad’s first day of preschool...and he absolutely hated it 😭 He cried almost the entire time, was scared about making new friends, and was worried about who Luke was going to play with while he was gone. Someone tell me that it will get easier on both of us! My mama heart was breaking as I watched him get anxious and scared. I’m optimistic that it’ll get better, but man, I think we’re both glad his first day is over. You win some, you lose some 🤷🏼‍♀️

Missing family, the sun, the sand, and my spray tan ☀️
