Milestones




We have had some major milestones over the last month in the Poretsky House. Although it's been exciting, it's also bittersweet. As a SAHM I'm lucky to see all these special moments in their lives, but sometimes it reminds me of how short my time with them will be. It all goes by too fast.


C is walking down the stairs wanting no help. Mommy is still a little nervous at this but she is determined to do it on her own. She also can count to 10 at 20 months. When I see this I remember back at this time with E. Its funny how you compare, but they are really two different girls. I'm seeing more than just the milestones. She is developing into her own little person. It's so fun to see her personality.

E has had a busy summer, and grown so much. The little things like her being able to buckle herself into the car makes me realize she is not my baby anymore. She also lost her first tooth this week. At 4 1/2 I wasn't prepared for it happening so soon. The tooth fairy arrived though with no problem.

All these moments are what parents want to happen. We want our children to become independent, grow and experience all life has to offer. Why is it so hard to let them go?
