This is a self portrait. Why, you ask? Because as I sit here rocking my sleeping baby I keep thinking I never want this to end and yet I know it must. Aly is 7 months tomorrow and I am sad it is going by so fast. She'll be crawling any day and I am sad that this baby stage is coming to a close. I love the next stage of walking and taking and her little personality emerging but right now I just want to freeze this moment. It's so real to me how fast it all goes-after all the house is quiet because Dylan and Kate are in school all day and Madi is at preschool. How did that happen? I remember thinking the days of Dylan as a challenging 3 year old would never end but now I sit with baby #4 thinking this could be the last. So when I saw my iPhone and thought maybe if I snap a picture it will help solidify this motherhood moment. Aly, I want you to know I love you and adore this time we get together. You have been pure joy to me since you arrived. I love you.
