Two Months




I can't even believe that my babies are two months old. Where does the time go? It seems as if one day just morphs into the next and suddenly, without warning, I am buying the next stage in diapers. Is this how it will always be? Will I go to sleep one night and wake up the next day to find my boys starting kindergarten? The expression "time flies" upsets me. For if it flies, where does it go? And then I want some wings....to fly with it. To accompany my boys in all that they do. Growth is inevitable. I know that I can't keep them little forever. I know that one day, sooner than I can imagine, my arms will not be able to hold both my boys at the same time. How is possible that I can't wait for the next stage of their lives, yet already miss the stage they have left behind? Motherhood is a paradox. My boys are spoiled. I can admit this. They are held ALL day. As a result of this, as soon as their fuzzy heads hit anything other than my arms, they let out a blood curdling scream. To which I promptly scoop them up and declare that, "mommy's here." And I will not deny the fact that I gloat when they stop crying. How wonderful that at this point in their lives, all they want is to be in my arms. So while I may be tired, at times overwhelmed, I would not trade this life for all the gold in China. I believe this was my destiny. That I have lived all my life to simply acheive this. To be a mother. 2 month stats: Beckett: 20 1/4 inches 8lbs 6oz Blake: 20 1/4 inches 7lbs 3oz
