It's already 2010!! I can't even believe it! Time seems to just be flying by...right when I wish it would just stop so that I could stay in this place forever!! The kids have been so fun lately.
Tyler is getting so big so fast. And he is just getting so smart..too smart. I am always torn between loving that my son is reading and progressing academically, and not being quite sure that I'm ready for him to be growing up so fast. I just want him to stay my little man FOREVER!! But time doesn't work that way.
Hannah is officially a SUNBEAM!! I have been so nervous for her. She is my strong spirit and I wasn't too sure how moving up to Sunbeams would go for her. But her teachers love her and called her "delightful"- and I found myself taking an audible sigh of relief. She LOVES doing things by herself and takes so much pride in picking out her own outfits. And again, I find myself wishing time would just slow down...just for a minute (or maybe forever!!).
Rachel has finally hit 20lbs and started NURSERY this Sunday! I thought she would be one of "those" kids that stays by the door screaming and crying until mom comes back to save them. But she wasn't. Sure she fussed for a few minutes...but then she loved it!! She loves to take hold of my fingers and follows me around the house. She's just happy as can be to be by my side, always. And I love it. As I got her dressed, I realized how she is FINALLY outgrowing some of the clothes she's been wearing for MONTHS. And while I thought this day may never come...I found myself a little sad to let go of this stage in our lives.
I'm just having way too much fun to want to move on. Is that bad? Here I am in the Age of Progress...just wishing for nothing more than my own personal "Groundhog Day" (the movie). A world where my kids are never too cool to dance with me in the kitchen, or too busy to sit coloring at the table, or too big to be carried to bed, or too old to follow me around the house. Is that too much to ask? sigh.
But onward we continue to move...and today is lost forever in a world of yesterdays. Hmmm. I guess that's what makes all our todays so important. We only get them once.
