Magic- July 10, 2012
Like any new mother I was hesitant and frankly dreading Charlotte’s move from infancy to toddlerhood. If I’m being honest it was a “Waa! Waa! My baby is growing up” thing. Seven months into officially having a toddler and I realized. I love it. Toddlers are not only adorable, they’re crazy fun!
It has been the greatest adventure watching my baby become this giggling, talking, playing, fighting, eating, drinking, dancing, singing little person. She has become a child with likes and dislikes, good days and bad. She is a human who gets sick, gets hurt, gets well, and heals up.
I feel silly even writing it. It’s an obvious and ordinary thing to learn and discover your world. But, not when it’s your child. When it’s your child it becomes magical.
We were coming home the other day and I said in the car, “Charlotte, are you ready to go home and see Daddy and Ginger?” She was quiet for a second, then responded, “Mama too?” I said, “Yes Baby. Mama too. Always.”
Spread it around:
I am a big fan of getting older. hahaha. I just can’t do the whole 4-7 month time frame.
