| Landon 12 months on the left and 5 yrs on the right |
Before I sat down to write this post I thought to myself you know I really need to blog about other things going on in my life besides my kids. Then I uploaded this picture and sat in front of the computer crying. I know you're thinking this lady is on the crazy train to the funny farm! But seriously children grow up so fast. Sometimes I can't figure myself out. I have so many of those mommy moments when I think oh life will be so much easier when they are older. Then I have those moments in my day that time freezes and I notice just how small and innocent they are. I notice Landon's beautiful eyes, and Liam's soft, tiny hands. Or just stare at their face while their in cartoon coma and notice just how sweet their little faces are. I think every mama can relate to those tender moments she feels for her child. This year I have really tried to focus on the now and be grateful for this time in my life. So when I bought Landon a new car seat I thought of this picture on the left. I remember being so excited for him to be in a big boy car seat and to have him forward facing. Now that I bought a booster seat for him this last week I am excited for him to buckle up himself. So sure life does get a little easy when they are less dependent on you but I know for a fact that one day later on in my life I will give anything to have them this small for day.
