I spend half my time wishing they'd just grow up and wipe their own butts (ok, maybe more than half) and the rest wishing I could just hold them and never let them go... Thanks all of you for reminding me I'm not the only one :) You chicks rock! Thankyou for the beautiful post *sniff!sniff!*

For me, it's the hands too. Something about those tiny little newborn hands with fingernails... and now with hands (and feet) almost as big as mine... I’m with Alison. For me, it’s the hands too.

I'm already trying to take in as much as I can with Mira and Cordy, struggling to lock away memories of how small Mira is, how it feels to snuggle with both of them, etc. I just told someone the other day how I feel like Mira is already growing out of babyhood so fast, and I'm not ready to leave the baby years behind yet.

This really choked me up because I just got home from a movie with my...14 year old. It was just the other day that I was looking at coats that size, I swear the time has flown by. Thanks for the reminder. Beautiful. This really choked me up because I just got home from a movie with my…14 year old.

Oh I so know. And I often mistake that ache for the ache of another. But I know they will always grow, no matter how many I have. So like you I try to inhale as much of it now and appreciate how fast it will all be gone. “I miss them already and ache.”
