Suddenly

My baby girl is loosing that baby look.

You know what I mean? Those precious baby features? Tonight G tried a cap on and at the same time Kip and I both said she looks ‘older’. I remember that happening with H too, just out of the blue. As a mother I would probably hang on tight and not let each new season happen but each one brings new joys and new blessings and insight to the young people that they are.

As I write this I realize the blessing is that God gave me the ability to see the change ‘when’ it happened rather than having to wonder ‘when did’ that happen.
