I don't remember growing older......

when did they.......

I can't believe it. She is actually walking up and down the steps herself.
This may not seem like a big deal, but it is huge for me. Huge.
When we bought this house, we knew these steps were extremely steep, and I remember thinking how dangerous they would be for our little girl who was, at the time, snuggled up inside my womb.
And now, she goes up and down like a 'big girl'.


Sunrise, Sunset. Sunrise, Sunset. Swiftly fly the years........


I walked down the aisle to this song from Fiddler on the Roof, fighting back tears as my parents were on either side of me, handing me over to my husband. And now, when I hear this song, I fight back tears while staring at my own children.

If I am already feeling this way now....I can only imagine what is to come by the time THEY are old enough to be married!

One season following another, laden with happiness and tears.
