I won’t be worried about how I looked. I won’t be embarrassed that I still had the same makeup on as I did the day before. Or that my hair wasn’t curled or even combed but that it was just tucked behind my ear to keep it out of my face.

It will simply remind me of a time when my babies would still snuggle on my lap and they would tell me about their day.

I’m pretty sure she will treasure it just as much.

Needless to say they share a birthday party each year. Sadie has been dying for a Taylor Swift birthday party. Jessie has gone along with it, but I could tell her heart wasn’t in it.

Today Jessie said to me, “Mom, I don’t really want a Taylor Swift birthday party. But Sadie really wants it and she’s my older sister and I love her. So I’m okay with a Taylor Swift party.”

I am going to blame the tears that creeped from my eyes on being exhausted from being up the night before till 3am.

But I think really, I cried because all I really want in this life is for my kids to be good people. To be compassionate and caring. To be loving and giving. To be empathetic and open to everyone. To think of others before themselves. And I think in that moment, I realized that Jess ‘got it’. She has listened to the many times her dad and I have told her to love others. And that love requires a lot of compromise and complete unselfishness.

They have their quarrels and their arguments. But these sister have something special. And I love having their example of what love truly looks like, in my home.

*I have started to develop my own black and white film at my house and these are each hand developed by me. I have a lot to learn, but I am addicted!*

The one pushing away and the one holding on.

Love is wonderful. Love is beautiful. Love is hard. Love is struggle. Love is to give. Love is to take. Love is to push and love is to pull. Love is real and imperfect yet perfect all at the same time.

Sisters.

Live better. Love more.

So anyone with kids knows when waking up a child from napping it can end pleasantly or look a lot like a bloody Hulk scene in the latest Avengers movie.

It’s a crap shoot basically.

And yes. He sleeps with his eyes cracked open.
