The girls were nice enough to nap at the same time this morning, which gave me the opportunity to have an impromptu “I’m two” photoshoot with Ezra, (since we didn’t get the chance this weekend). I’ve missed those. I have an entire Instagram dedicated to the last year and a half of Ezra photo-ops/shoots. They have been fewer and farther between over the last 3 months. I could tell that Ezra appreciated the undivided attention. I enjoyed giving it. I remember the last couple of months of being pregnant, having emotional breakdowns over the thought of having to split the love I had for Ez between 3 kids.. And how it could affect him.. How it would somehow leave him feeling less loved than before. It killed me! I realize now that my love doesn’t actually get divided.. It somehow multiplies! But I do have to make the conscious effort to carve out little Mom and Ezra times throughout the day. And when I’m with him, try and remember to be present. I’m sadly tempted to be distracted by the laundry list of endless day to day responsibilities that are now required of me, or honestly, just the mindlessness of smart phone entertainment. But this morning, I did a great job of putting that stuff on the back burner and just had fun with my son.
