***sigh***





On Monday, my babygirl will be a freshman in high school. where is the baby that:

used to fit so snug in my arm.

thought hot dogs were the greatest meal ever....ever!

used to ride on my neck, while using my head as a bongo.

would hide behind me for protection

made me eat the plastic hamburgers and hot dogs that she 'made'.

used to fall asleep on my chest.

looked so cute in her cherry dress, that we put it on her ALL the time.

spoke a language that only her mother and i could understand.

gave the greatest hugs!


i miss that child but im excited to see the woman she will become. She is still beautiful, i still like to watch her sleep and she still gives the greatest hugs.

***sigh***

my babygirl is growing up.

I sooo feel you. He starts the 1st grade Monday. I love him so much--who he was and who he will become.

The picture of you two is wonderful! She sure is gorgeous. She must get it from her mama. :P lol
