It is really almost over :(


Tonight we got home late from a friend's home and so the kids were all cranky. We got them some milk for our drive home and so when they got home we slipped their pj's on and put them to sleep. Well Harm and Rach went down in a just a second but my precious Cally sensed he was off kilter and moaned for me.

I scooped him in my arms and took him to the living room. I just held him and stroked his head. He still felt like a little baby. He wouldn't close his eyes. He knew if he did I would put him back in his crib. So he just with bleary eyes stared at me. What he didn't know was that I didn't want to put him down. I felt more than ever that this was it for us. Soon he will be a big boy like Harmon and he won't be a baby. I know he is going to be a wonderful big boy but just tonight I wanted one more moment of just holding my little baby.

All my children are wonderful and special in their own way. Callum is sort of the "middle" child I joke but I appreciate every special quiet moment I have with him. I love when he sings to me or laughs his hearty belly laugh. He is a really amazing little man! Tonight I was glad he gave me one more night of being my precious little baby. I don't want any more kids to be quite honest but I also will admit these moments are almost over and yes, I will miss them!

  1. I think those moments are a gift to us from Heavenly Father. He knows how much we love our little ones, and how we cherish the time they are little, and how busy we are. What a sweet gift you were given!
