Everything we're doing seems to be, in many ways, for the last time. After this year, he'll only be around part time. These years go by in a blink and I'm astounded at how emotional I am, though I probably shouldn't be so surprised. The week we brought him home, I found myself weeping over phone company commercials and wondering how I could ever live without this tiny person whom I had only just begun to know.

My daughters eyes are so big and blue that they used to scare me in the night when I would roll over and nurse her on my side (like a fat cow). What a stellar idea to write letters like this for our kids to read when they are older. I should try that but I'm so unmotivated and lazy sometimes. Good for you for taking the time.
