Slow down and enjoy the crayon smudges

Monday morning.

Is it just me or are the weeks going by faster than ever? I used to enjoy when the day would speed by and I could get to the quiet of night, but now those fast moving days are taking their weeks with them. In 10 days it will be E’s bithday, his party will be in 7. Holy cow! I’ve got get my butt in gear and get stuff quick.

This evening I folded towels and handed them to him. he ran back and forth putting them away in the drawer, so proud of himself. He’s taken A under his wing and makes a big deal about playing with him. He asks me what every word he sees is, he can count to ten, he is beginning to grasp concepts that once were too much. He can tell you is a color is light or dark, that is you have 2 cookies and I give you one more now you have three, and that hugs and kisses will pretty much get you anything you ask for from mommy. Yep, my sweet little baby is growing up. What do I do now?

I won’t even get into how big A is. I’ve come to the conclusion that he never was little, which is true if you think about how big he was at birth.

Boys, they grow too quickly.
