so often i find myself wishing that a day will pass quickly, or a week, or on a tuesday that a weekend will hurry up and arrive.
i forget that while i am being so impatient and wishing for days and years to fly by so i can get on with something else that i am excited for that those precious and fleeting moments with my babies being babies are passing me by too.
it seems like just yesterday that i was making preparations for a sweet little girl to arrive in our home and then i blinked and this happened…
somehow she went from a newborn to a sweet, sassy, full of personality, hillarious little almost 4 year old.
we went to run some quick errands today and i was reminded how precious every moment is.
-her wanting to hold my hand so “we can be a family that loves each other” is what she said.
-her referring to me as mommy and momma and gazing up at me like she is just the happiest she has ever been.
-her talking my ear off in the dressing room while i listened to all the other women in their rooms snickering at how funny it was
-the adoring glances that she gets everywhere we go and is completely unaware of
it won’t be long before i don’t have a little cutie that WANTS to hold my hand anymore and thinks that i am the bees knees. until then i am going to stop trying to speed up time and freeze it for awhile so i can soak up every minute!
have a great day!
