i don't need to say it.
you already know it, and if you don't really know it, you have heard it somewhere.
it sounds so cliche.
THEY GROW UP SO FAST!
okay, i said it.
my heart feels it deeply too.
i can't help it.
it's so so so bittersweet.
i see how beautiful it is to watch these babies grow into kids and be awesome!
i am also in love with a brand new baby who shows us what life is really about ... love, sleep, clean diapers, boobs food, and being held gently.
my favorite hobby right now is sitting still and holding jude.
i kiss him, call him baby, smile at him, make sure to soak in a few moments a day of just jude and me.
i notice that he's fussier when i'm busy and worrying about cleaning the house or writing all the thank you notes (that's a whole other post!) or doing things for everybody else here.
it's good for me to hear because i tune into sitting still, being present, and praying.
and although i feel great about my time with this baby, it's still hard that IT GOES SO FAST!
man, i'm happy i have him.
