Julia is growing up fast and it's hard on this mommy's heart! With Elena & Chloe, I couldn't wait for them to reach the next milestone, whatever that was. It was hard having two little ones and no helpers. I was in a hurry for them to grow up and get easier.
With Lydia, I enjoyed it all. I was in no hurry. I had a blast with every new thing she did.
But with Julia, I want her to SLOW DOWN! Being an older and hopefully wiser mom than I was before, many things are so much more fun. I'm more relaxed and I don't take anything for granted. I go to bed at night just thankful that I've gotten to have Julia for this long. I realize what a gift she is and how blessed I am to have her.
When Elena says: "When Julia's 10, I'll be 20!", I cover my ears and ask her never to remind me of that ever again! Please slow down, kids! I'm enjoying you all so much!
Oh so true!! I have felt the same.
ReplyDeletemiss you @ momys! :o)
So true, its hard to believe that the time will fly when they are born, but it does. My oldest is 12 and my youngest is 6 and I look at them and think - when did you get so big? I love spending time with them.
