9 in, 9 out

i realized the other day that antonio has been here with us longer than i was pregnant with him.

the past 9 months have passed just as quickly as the 9 months i was pregnant. they have also had times that seem to pass so slowly you wish they were over. yet, when those very moments pass, you miss them.

i am constantly amazed at how much antonio has taught me. i always thought we would be the ones teaching our children, but being a mom has shown me that it's often the opposite. this tiny little baby has taught me about myself, about my husband, about what's really important in life. in 9 months, i've learned more from antonio than i have in the past 27 years.
