Terrible Twos






I know that they call these the terrible twos. But right now, I am wishing that time stood still. Last week Lydia and I were at the park (like almost every day since the weather has gotten cooler), having a picnic (like almost every meal since the weather has gotten cooler) and Lydia felt a cool breeze. Probably the first time she has been chilly for months. Suddenly she gasped "Oh mommy! We need to make a snowman cause it is cold and have Christmas with Papa and Grandma and Santa will come but I not sit on his lap, only the Easter bunny.

I just wrapped her up in my arms and buried my head in her hair. Please stay this little and sweet. Just for a little longer. Mommy isn't ready for her baby to go quite yet.

She's precious. Don't you love loving deeply? My Luke (6) and I have a special Cheek-to-Cheek moment we like to share. I get to press my cheek to his. While I revel in his soft skin and demeanor, he tells me secrets. We've done this since he was born. I especially love how he now knows it's our special encounter.

Oh I know! There are moments when I want to pull my hair out. But then there are moments that I wish she would stay this way.

Sigh. Enjoy it, girl.

♥ I love the sweet innocence of children! I think my kids were worse at 3 than 2... :)

I totally echo your sentiments. I wish the boys wouldn't grow so fast too. They are really starting to look, act and talk like little boys now, not babies.

Sweet little Liddy. What a doll. It is great you are capturing those moments.
