Some call me a stalker, some call me a mom

I like to sneak into my boys' room and watch them while they sleep. I know. Creepy, right? It's just that they grow up so quickly and right now they are so precious that I really want to catch every little moment. I know they won't be little forever and it actually makes me kinda sad to think about them growing up and going to school, losing teeth, hating girls, playing sports, liking girls, graduating, driving moving away, going to college, getting married, having babies and sneaking in and watching their babies sleep. Wow, I'm sort of emotionally exhausted now. Why did I put myself through that? It's just what moms do I guess.

So what got all that mushy mom stuff started? I'm taking David to get 2 year pictures done today. He's 2! That's practically grown up! Just ask him, he'll tell you he doesn't even need me anymore. :) When my baby turned one, I was in shock. How could a whole year have went by already?! It was really sort of bittersweet. It was fun to see him grow up a little bit and it was fun to think about all the new things he'd be doing soon, but at the same time it was sad because he was more of a toddler than a baby. This time, at two, he doesn't make me so sad. In fact, he's pretty dog-gone funny these days and it makes me laugh non-stop. I don't know where he gets the little comedy routines, but they are good.

The picture appt should be interesting. I hope the photographer is patient. David and I are both feeling a bit under the weather still (we got colds last week while helping with VBS at church) and it's made him a little edgy at times. We're doing better now than we were over the weekend though so I didn't cancel the appointment. I'm holding my breath and hoping it goes well. I'll let you know.
