You will always be my #3. The spouse before kids narrative is not for me.

Don’t get me wrong, husband. When I get a weekend with just you-it’s magical. When I’m able to remember 21 again and those first days. Those first dates. It’s perfect.

But life now- life now can’t compare. Life now can’t compete with 21 and quiet. Life now is fulfilled. Life now is big hugs and being more proud than I ever thought possible. Life now is loud and busy and full of emotions and growing up.

These boys are everything good. They are the best parts of you and the best parts of me. They are also the hardest parts of you and the hardest parts of me.

These boys are my #1. And I will make sure they always know why they are #1.

Thanks for reading! You can read the full story here and more of my work here.
