Every day, there is a point at some time, when I look at my boys, who are now 15 months, and think to myself, 'Wow, they are getting so big!' They are walking (and running when they know they did something they should not have), babble talking, and playing really well now. They have all of the characteristics of 'Big Boys' now, including thick, awesome heads of hair.
Then, I look at our daughter, who is starting school this year! She is three, and she is turning into such a little lady.... ok, diva, a lot of the time. She is able to do so much on her own. She makes her own snacks, toilets herself, chooses and changes her clothes, and helps me out with her brothers, especially when she is upset.
I am cherishing these growing up times, busy as they are. They will only come once, and I look forward to the days where I get just a bit more 'me' time.... AKA time to clean the house, bake, take a shower, etc.. lol
On the flip side, there are moments each day, when I look at the kids and think how small and young they are still. Sitting and snuggling with my daughter to read a book and how well she still fits onto my lap. Seeing the boys stand next to a toy that is way too big for them, highlighting how small they still are... These moments make me almost giddy, as they remind me that I still have 'babies' in the house. They are not all that big yet.
Regardless, I am sure that no matter how big or small they are, they will always be my babies. :)
