I love my life so, so much I could cry
Tomorrow is my birthday. I'll be 32. I was just thinking about it wasn't that long ago I was in my 20s and wondering if I was ever going to be really happy. I wanted to fall in love and have a family so damn badly, and I was sure I was too unattractive and unappealing to have it. But I dreamed about it all the time. I've been married to the most amazing, incredible man for 3 years. He's the best partner and father in the entire world, and I can't believe he's real and is better than any dream I could ever come up with. I watched tonight while he danced with our toddler around the kitchen and I held our 7 week old newborn. My toddler came up to me and said "Birthday you, Mommy! Yay birthday!" and just... I never thought I would be lucky enough to actually have this. It overwhelms me sometimes when I realize it's all real.
