nothing will ever be the same

It changes everything.  This is another life.  A separate entity.  Ella Jane Icardi.  For Mike and Laura everything is going to be different.

I was thinking about that over the short time we had in VA.  I know it's a cliche to say that a child changes everything, but think about it.  That is so true.  I mean while the baby is in his or her mom's stomach the baby is apart of their mom.  It's just the husband and wife.  But once that baby joins them and enters the world we call earth that family goes from two people to three people.  Bam.  There is now another life to support.  While that is a huge blessing, it is also a huge responsibility.

These things have really been hitting me.  So, while I love Ella and so glad she is apart of the Icardi family, I've realized I'm so glad that I do not have a child.  I'm more than glad to wait a while for that. :)
