Midget and I were looking at some old baby pictures of her today. She was loving seeing how adorable she was, those were her words. This brought her brother out to see his also, and of course he was adorable too :) It's amazing and sad to see how fast time flies with them. Sometimes i wish i could freeze time and keep them right where they are. There are moments now and again where i have to tell myself to stop, and savor this moment. They seem to grow up so quickly. The other morning midget and were playing in the pool, monkey had slept late. He was still tired from our wild and crazy 4th of july ;) I was just laying with my head on her float, and she came and laid on it right next to me. She said how relaxing it was, just the two of us. I couldn't help but start at her little face. All the freckles across her nose, and that adorable grin where she squints her eyes. I know that was a moment i wwanted to stop time and memorize. Then about 10 minutes later her brother cannonballed into the pool, and life as we know it moved on :)
Moments like that happen more and more with monkey though. He's to the age now where he will lay down next to me on the bed and ask all kinds of questions about life. He's definately got his own viewpoints on politics. But when he's sitting there talking i can always see that little bit of baby in him. When he sleeps he still looks like that little baby all curled up. He's a tween now i believe, and i can't believe it. When did that happen? How has it gone by so fast already. I'm not sure where all this sappiness is coming from, maybe it's just that i see how fast they are growing up, and they won't stop and stay little just a bit long. Is that too much to ask?
