changes...



it's amazing to see how quickly they change! the first photo was taken july 12, the second today august 11th. i can't believe she is five weeks old. it feels so hard and you wish them to get a little bigger and easier and then suddenly you realize how fast it is going by. i look into her eyes and wish i could freeze this moment in time. you think you will never forget just exactly how they look and sound, but you do. each phase is replaced by a new one, and then another. i find myself staring more intently at my older children as well, trying to capture this moment of theirs. i love watching them grow but as every mother knows deep to her core, it is oh so bittersweet.
