Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Princess Pirates life for me

I came back from a run, & I entered Princess Pirate Kingdom.
Blake had rigged up a princess pirate ship from a car seat cardboard box, I helped London paint it, while Blake put the finishing touches on it.

We made telescopes + printed out treasure maps & pirate hats.

London sailed the raging seas all day long.
Dot + Hawaii (dolls name) became crew mates.
Penny became a sea monster.
London conversed with all the merfolk & I just sat back & watched the magic unfold in her room.
What an imagination that sweet London has.  

I wonder what I would have thought 10 years ago if I knew this was how my life would end up.  Nothing really turned out how I'd imagined.   I am privileged to be the mom to these two girls.   Motherhood is not easy, but, it's beautiful.  Sometimes, I dream of having free time, or actually taking a shower like a normal person, or even just eating a piece of candy without sharing... But, what would my life be like without these crazy + cute girls?  It would be a life that I would never want to have.  These girls are my life & I am SO thankful that I am a woman because I got to experience these girls in my belly, I got to birth them, I got to nurse them, & I get to be their MOTHER.  My biggest blessing.
