Tempus Fugit

Today is Lily's last day of being 2! I'm sure that tomorrow when year three begins, she will become much more mature and reasonable.

I'm with her every day, so often do not realize how quickly the time is whizzing by. When you bring home a newborn baby, seasoned parents will always tell you how quickly children grow. As a new parent, you shrug this off, because you are feeding, changing, feeding, changing for 24 hours a day, and it seems like your helpless little baby will never be able to do anything for herself.
But here's the truth. Tempus Fugit. And it doesn't always seem like it, but tomorrow Lily will be three. And I feel like I have missed something, I work hard everyday making food, cleaning up toys, and trying to enstill good behavior in my daughter that I feel like I've missed her growing up. I look at photos and can't remember what she was really like at that stage in her life. I honestly do not know where the last three years have gone. But I do know that I love being Lily's mom, and can't wait to see how much she will change and grow in the next year of her life.


Happy Birthday Lily!
