I guess that before we had William I wasn’t as aware of time passing. Maybe a few more grey hairs but as adults we don’t change as quickly.
Then there’s Will, every day he seems to grow another inch, every day there seems to be another development. Like today he finally figured how to roll onto his belly from his back. Now if he could only figure out how to get from his belly back to his back! It seems like every few days he discovers something new and grows an inch or so more. To think we were all this small once.
I see the other kids in daycare when I go to pick him up and realize that soon he’ll be as big as them. He won’t be my little nugget for too long. Some day he’ll go on his own and do his own thing. He’s a gauge of passing time.
This reminds me to live every moment that I’m with him and be as present as much as I possibly can.
