Memory Lane {from wordpress October 14, 2011)

Now that its all quiet at my house with everyone pretty much asleep... I get to have some mommy time. Usually my mommy time consists of me doing some things on the computer. Well tonight is no different but i found myself looking around at old pictures of my kids.
I know they have to grow up but Im going to also say its ok to be a bit sad about it! I have no urge to have any more kids so its a bit bittersweet that Maggie is getting past all the little baby stuff and Liam is obviously heading into schoolager land as quickly as his little feet can take him.
I would be lieing if i told you i dont miss when he was little. Life was so much easier then, but then i look into my little girls face and know that we are on the way to where we need to be in life! It may be hard. It may be frustrating at times. It may even be downright ugly! But then i look at my sleeping babies and know that in the long run it is totally worth it! They are the reason for doing everything we do! Its our goal as parents to give them a better life than we had growing up(and T and I had some pretty great ones) SO as we head to the next phase of parenthood(terrible 2's and schoolagehood) I will keep my fond memories of the baby years close at hand and know that i will make it through this just like i did those sleepless nights!
