Molly is 8 weeks old and it feels like I gave birth yesterday. Time is flying. She is reaching all of the appropriate milestones, which is an achievement in itself considering she was 1 month premature. She just melts my soul.
I have found myself missing Dominic a lot lately. I miss him a lot all of the time, so I suppose I should rephrase that to, I've been feeling more waves of sadness over the loss of Dominic lately. Sometimes I just stare at Molly while she's sleeping and feel sad that her big brother isn't here. I would give anything to see how they would have been together. I miss him so much.
I have been utilizing everyone in our lives that want to help out with Molly and I am realizing that it does take a village to raise a child. I could not imagine being a single mother. It must be the hardest job on the planet.
I have only 11 more classes before I graduate. I can graduate in Dec. '13, but I think I'm going to stretch it out until May '14. The closer I get to being done, the more scared I get about my career. In some aspects I still feel like a child, not knowing what I want to be when I grow up.
Ray and I are doing great. We work great together with Molly, and he is such a good dad. I love seeing his face when he holds Molly.
I am looking forward to the holidays and taking time off of school and work to be with the family. My parents are just smitten with Molly and she is already spoiled.
Things are really, really good.
