Oh Kristy my heart breaks for you. I cried all the way to work for days and days, and I was leaving our son with my husband.

So I have just recently jumped into the parenting world and have a beautiful 8wk old daughter. I never in a million years thought I would want to be a stay at home mom but right now I want it with all my soul. I have just gone back to work and I cry every morning when I have to leave her. I am not a emotional person but being a parent changes your entire world for the better. I even got teary when she went to the next size diaper. I look at my little girl every day and can’t imagine my life any other way. What a gift to be a parent and yes even this early I want to slow the clock.

Way to make me tear up! I'm in denial that my girls are growing up. I swear they are still itty babies. Jens last blog post..RAK: Wednesday

This is like round and round with Karma. First I make Managermom misty eyed, than my own mom leaves a sweet comment and I get all misty eyed, until I realized she told y’all that I still do the potty dance when I have to pee. Please note, this does not include music and it’s more of a quick shuffle to the nearest ladies room than an actual dance.

I love Love You Forever, except . . . I think it's sad she has to call him to come. It was quite a milestone when the last child was taller than me. Jenn @ Juggling Lifes last blog post..BitchHer 2008: The Inaugural Bash

Can I second everthing you just said?? Some days they drive me crazy and I want them to GROW UP…but then I notice they’re growing up and I want it all to stop. I guess all we can do is appreciate them and realize how blessed we are to have them. Great post.

Last night we had dinner with family and friends … the traditional Sunday night curry. For no reason Aaron turned to me and said: I love you daddy!!! He left people speechless and amazed with such an expression of affection. Of course, I loved it.

I agree with Donna … we will never, ever forget, and children will never forget how much their parents love them either.

you never forget, I remeber the first word that you said and how beautiful it was, You were only 9 months old and you saw a flower while we were walking and you called it a fla-tee. I remeber it like it was yesterday. And the first time your Dad said no to you how crushed you were and how your little lip quivered like it still does. And the potty dance that you still do when you have to pee. So you see you don’t forget. Flowers will always be fla-tees to me.

I tried to post a comment last night, but it lost it or something, so here goes again.

Last night I was having problems with Noah. Reading this post really did me a lot of good. Thank you for writing it. It reminded me how precious these days are. It also reminded me that this too shall pass.
