As my babies' first birthday approaches, I'm finding it hard to get very excited. Don't get me wrong, they are so much fun right now. Each month that passes I say, "This is my favorite age!!"
People always say, "They grow so fast!" The truth in those words is almost painful at times. I went over to visit my friend, D, and her new baby - just a few weeks old. Holding her, I couldn't wrap my mind around the fact that there was a time AR, SJ, and SA were that tiny. Even smaller! Wow. My babies...they don't even seem like babies anymore. With the excitement of each milestone, I find myself mourning those that have passed.
That's why I want to thank Suzanne over at Dot Moms for writing this. Reading her story, it gave me the kick in the butt I needed. It reminded me that each day is a milestone and every tomorrow is a blessing - not something to fear, but something to embrace.
Thank you.
