Very beautiful blog…I cried, maybe because I completely understand where you are coming from, as all mothers do. You really should write a book!

Ok, I’d seen a few comments from your FB post and was determined not to cry while reading…I was strong until the 2nd to the last paragraph, then YOU GOT ME!!!! That was me at putting Sophia’s hair in pigtails for the 1st time…totally changed her look! BTW, you’re a GREAT mom…they’ll always love you!!! And, so will we!

Oh, that is so sweet!! I hope my boys are the same way for as long as possible, Amy.

You’re right, bells. I’ll just focus on counting my blessings instead of focusing on how fleeting they might be.

Hilarious! I’ll dry my tears for a few more years then, Gina.

Don’t cry too soon. April (who will always be baby girl to me) still wants to hold hands to cross streets, and even busy parking lots. She is 26.

I was just talking to my sister about this this morning. her five year old son is still all cuddles and love and cuteness (he just proposed to her!) but she knows it’s all going to be over soon enough and he’ll be a teenager. So she has decided to try very hard to just live in the now and enjoy it all for what it is. I imagine that’s so much harder when there are four of the little darlings. Still, think of it this way – you get four opportunities at having all that fun and love – four opportunities to watch them sleep. How lovely.

If it makes you feel any better my oldest is almost 11 and she still offers me unconditional forgiveness and understanding for my little “slip ups”. The other day I had her at the dr.’s office and she felt awful, where did she sit……all wadded up in my lap. We must have been a sight, she is almost as tall as me so it was legs hanging everywhere. Just love him and he’ll love you right back in the way you need him to, for a long time. (Don’t tell anyone about the Dr., that might embarrass her
