*WARNING* serious rambling ahead!! lol
Ok so yes, I am one of those hovering, overbearing mom’s.. one of the mom’s who wouldn’t dream of popping out of the car to hand some guy $20 for gas without taking out the baby.. And I live rural ..really rural! I wouldn’t let my son play on playgrounds unless I was right behind him.. seriously I am sure it drove him a little crazy but I just couldn’t let it go.. I was looking through these photo’s from the park. and saw these that I took of him skipping and rolling in the field.. and I thought wow he is SO far away from me.. almost an entire field’s length.. trust me if you knew what I was like you would be shocked!! LOL
This my attempt at trying to do more journaling.. its funny because I am one of those people who write’s letters to the editor.. and constantly is searching for little bits of paper that I write every thought, idea and cute story down on.. but, I just find getting it to look right on the page is so hard! I love how so many of you make it look effortless.. It isn’t for me yet LOL
Journaling: You’re not so little anymore. Sometimes I feel like I don't know how this happened, I know people say kids grow in blink of an eye, but you really did. At first I thought it was the short haircut or starting school. But today I realized that it is for real. Because it's not just you, it's "us". I have grown too. Before your sister was born I never, and I mean never let you out of my sight. I never walked in a store or parking lot without clutching your hand and intently surveying my surroundings to ensure your safety at all times. Until Piper came I climbed all the playgrounds got in the dirt, sat by the tub even though you were five and chased after you everywhere like a madwoman. But lately my hands have been to full for your hand and I can't take Piper into tunnels and forts just yet. So you have been given that freedom, some by necessity, and some by your own desire. Sometimes it just feels like a lot of space so quickly. And every step you take seems to be further away.
Wow if you read all that hats off to you.. I really do blabber on like that in person too.. LOL
