I can hardly believe how much Dagim has grown in two years, as evidenced by these two pictures of him wearing my rain boots. He often makes it known that he is a big boy now and not a baby. It's all so bittersweet. I love that he's growing up, talking all day long, telling stories, having adventures, becoming his own person. But it makes me sad too. Some days I tell him to stay little. Usually he says "No, I want to get big like Daddy." But some days he'll say "I want to stay little like Mommy." And some nights, before bed, he still wants to be held "like a baby," as he says. Why didn't someone warn me that motherhood would break my heart?
Holy moly! He has grown so much. He's super sweet and healthy. I loved the pictures and your words. Give him a high (since he is so tall) five!
ReplyDeleteI could have written this post word for word. I feel the same way! So amazing and heartbreaking at the same time.
ReplyDeleteI feel that way and we are only in our first year! Sometimes I think it would be nice to start all over but I know time would fly just as fast!
ReplyDeleteThat top picture made ME tear up! He is growing into such a little man. I agree, bittersweet, I feel the same way about Elliott.
ReplyDeleteAh Shasta I just took a brief moment to scroll through your posts, I will be back to read soon! Your little man is growing! How I wish I could spend some face to face with you, perhaps a trip to China needs to be in my future. Miss reading up on you- happy day friend!
