Today I had the pleasure of watching our oldest perform what she has learned so far of her Spring recital dance. It was so cute seeing her dance her heart out to the "Ice Cream Freeze", but I couldn't help but sit there and ponder where the time has gone? It seems like just yesterday I was swaddling her and trying to keep track of her sleep and nursing schedules. Oh, what I would do to go back and cherish those sweet cuddle moments a little longer. It is bittersweet watching our little ones grow and become their own people. On one hand you are so proud as they become independent but on another hand its just plain sad to see them "fly". I am definitely one of those moms that wishes time would freeze just a bit. I have to say to all the new moms who are experiencing the birth of their first baby...enjoy it all. Don't fret over how much your little one is or isn't sleeping, eating, or doing, because in time it will all work out. Don't compare what your baby is doing to any other baby...just savor the moments!! Because before you know it, you'll be watching that little baby, turned 6, shaking her booty to Miley Cyrus and wondering how did we get here so quickly......
