2 months

How can our #7 be 2 months old already?  It doesn’t seem possible.  Her newborn days have already slipped away and she is now a baby.  It won’t be long before she is a girl and then grown.

I keep holding her, this perfect replica of my firstborn, and wondering where the years have gone since I was a first time mom holding my precious baby and now she is a sophomore in high school.  In two years she will be out of my house and a woman.  How can that be?

Does anyone know how to slow down time?  Have they invented a way to savor every precious moment?  The tighter I try to hold on, the faster they slip away.

2 months old and trying to be bigger.

Slow down little one.  Curl up and snuggle in.  Tomorrow will be here before you know it, and we will be discussing colleges and boys instead of singing lullabies.  Don’t be in a hurry to grow.  Just let me enjoy your littleness for a moment longer.
