These Are The Moments...

I am laying here on the bed with my little one watching her sleep, when I realize these are the moments. This is why I Love being a Mom. The other day when my husband let our daughter sit in his lap and drive the car around the parking lot, I realized-these are the moments. I am careful to tape record ever "moment" I can because I don't want the moments to ever end. I want them to keep coming, and they will, but they won't always be the same. When she goes up and moves out, those moments will be few and far between. I won't get to lay in bed with her and watch TV or laugh as she falls asleep while eating her spaghetti. She won't follow me around the house anymore screaming "MA!" MA!" It won't always be the same, but for now, I am taking in every minute of it from the time she wakes up until the time she closes her eyes for bed and I just keep telling myself it gets better. Every age, every stage. It just gets better.
