My DD's (ages 6 and 8) are off from school today and I went to take a shower, and then I got dressed and put on make-up and dried my hair, and cleaned up the breakfast dishes. It suddenly occurred to me I had not talked to DD's in almost 45 minutes! I went to their crafts room to find them working on cards for their friends. I asked them if they were ok and they were like Yah, why wouldn't we be.
I can't believe how much life has changed in a few years. I can remember one day, about 5 years ago when it took me the whole day to get done what I did by myself in those 45 minutes. And my precious DD's were at my side the whole time. Its easier now, but I sure miss the way it was sometimes!
:
Of course, I am taking them to see a cute movie and out to lunch and then shopping for spring clothes. I know we will have fun and so there are some great things about big girls, but still its going kinda fast.
Do you all think this too?

I look at her all the time and tell my dh how I cant belive she was a little baby or toddler now she is a big girl with her own fashion taste and wonderful opnions, it makes me so proud and sad at the same time. My ds is 2 and needs me all the time and I do mean all the time and I think at times I can't wait til he can handle more independence and then I think about my dd and just how at times I wish she still needed me all the time and just wanted me to hold her. That usually helps me keep going. It does go by fast and it is at times os bittersweet
