My How Things Have Changed

There was a time where the only thing important to me was the party on Friday night. Was it at my house? What cute boy would be there? How many drinks could I have and still make it home.

Then I met Bob. And Bob was not a night owl, but I still was. I still went out. Still partied. Still flirted. Still tried to decide how many drinks I could have and still make it home.

But now I have Aiden and Grant and the world will never be the same again. I am sitting here watching tv after putting Grant down. Bob is in with Aiden putting him to sleep. Then he will come to bed and we will wake up in the morning and both get into our routines for the week.

Now I look forward to the weekend not because I am going out to any party. But because I will be at home with the people that I love the most. My little family will all be together at home which is my favorite place to be. I get such weird satisfaction out of organizing the diaper bin or planting flowers in the garden. Double strollers (thank you thank you thank you) have replaced trips to the spa and my wardrobe has been reduced to jeans and/or sweats and t-shirts because I can run around a park in them.

I can't believe how things have changed and I can't believe how important all those things once were to me.
