But it surprised me the other day to see her light up at a "Brainy Baby" video. I put her on her tummy (with her cousin Jack), and wow... she hasn't stayed so lifted-up for so long a period any other time before.
She loved watching the bright colors and hand puppets. It made me sort of sad, to see her take such an interest in it. Isn't that selfish?
Part of me wants her to learn and grow, but a big part of me just wants to her to stay tiny, content to hang out in my arms for hours on end without no interest in the outside world.
Very sweet pictures...very sad sentiment...but if one joy didn't give way to another, you'd eventually get tired of the first. I am so glad you are blogging! It makes me feel like I'm not missing All of it!
ReplyDeleteYou feel that way today, but there are many days in your future in which you will be grateful for a few minutes free of "Mommy! Mommy!" Heidi is right...her growth will lead to new stages you'll cherish :)
