The "I'm Not Readies"

Today, I have suffered from a major case of the "I'm not readies"...it's my littlest ones 9 month birthday, my little lady got her "big girl" book bag to start 3k in September, and my big boy starts Kindergarten in 1 month and 2 days...
This is enough to send this Mommy into some serious "I'm not readies"! How did this happen, how did they grow so fast?? There's a quote I love that says "there will be years for cleaning and cooking, but children grow up when we are not looking". Don't get me wrong, I look forward to each phase in their life and experiencing new things, learning new things and seeing who it is God has planned for them to be! But, I just am reluctant to let them grow, for I know these are days we won't get back, a time in our life that will never happen again! Although, there are great things in the future, it's hard to get past the images of those little newborn babies you once held and wondered who they would be and how they would look, that are so deeply embedded into my very being!



 

 
 

 
 
 
There are great things about independence and growing up, but I am sure going to miss having my little babies little!! They may not always be little, but they will ALWAYS be my babies!!
