Do you see this child? This is a baby you could watch fall asleep in a bassinet. I had thought they were a myth.
That baby? That one right there? She's turning four. This is her now:
When did that happen? Did I blink?
We are a family of six through birth and adoption through the foster care system. Our days include a mix of reactive attachment disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, visual and language processing disorders, and general strangeness mixed with joy, peace, and healing.
Yes, you did. I have tried so hard not to blink in the past! With my baby turning 16 tomorrow, I am now blinking at the speed of light, bless his heart. I'll probably try to stop blinking again when he graduates from High School.
ReplyDeleteBTW....she's a PRECIOUS little darling, then and now!
ReplyDeleteIt's weird to think they're growing right before our very eyes. I have a nine (almost 10!) year old that I clearly remember nursing. How did that happen??
ReplyDeleteThat baby is beautiful, tiny and not-so-tiny.
