Where does the time go?
With all of my crazy pregnancy hormones, I am having a hard time dealing with the fact that I can't keep the Bear little forever. Eesh. It seems like just yesterday that we brought her home, I was elated to see a cheeky little smile from her round face, then coaxed her to sit up and crawl. I couldn't believe when she walked, turned 1, and started to talk. I can't believe that she is now 2 and we can carry on sweet conversations all day and watch Sesame Street together. She can count, knows MOST of her colors, and can even match the correct lid with her sippy cups. She puts her dirty clothes away every night before her bath and tries so hard to be a big girl by washing herself.
As sad as it is that she is not my sweet little baby, I can be comforted that she still cuddles, and kisses. She still wants me to carry her around after her bath in a towel. She still is excited to see me every morning. She still likes me to put Butt Paste on her tush, just like when she was a baby. She is still my baby.... but I feel like everyday that slips a little further away. MY how I wish time would stop, even if just for a few moments.
