I started writing this a few days before Pinky’s birthday! It is now a week since she has turned two and so much has happened. I didn’t think I had written enough so I stopped…and waited. I now realize that less is more. There are so many little changes in Pinky that I want to burn into my memory, that I want to jot down, but didn’t have the time. I think to tweet about it or update my status on Facebook…and I do but the thoughts and ideas are too important to just get washed up and lost in the thread. They are important enough to share, but I want more for them…I want to keep them somewhere safe. They are in my heart…and for now on this screen. In lieu of all these changes, I am going to challenge myself to write more frequently,by writing less. It’s something that is difficult for me to do, but I hope you will hold me accountable. We get so caught up in life that we forget to count our blessings and reflect on our day. I want to do that again..starting now. Enjoy!
Every day I am asking Pinky, “How old are you?” because I want to hear her say 1 and put up one little finger. But she’s already telling me she’s 2! Why? Because she’s smart of course, shes growing, it’s supposed to happen!
My, my does time truly fly! I love her so much. I miss her being my baby, at the same time, I am excited for the new adventures that are soon to come!
Being a parent, a mommy has brought me so much joy.
I love you Pinky…
