Little Eyes

Last week I was going through older pictures on my computer so I could compare the boys and see how they were the same or different at 3 months. As I was scrolling through pictures, I found this video of D.  I must admit that I became the blubbering mother as I watched it.  I couldn’t hold back the tears as I thought about two things: how much D has changed and how much he watches and observes.  

D has changed so much in a year.  Some days I feel like he isn’t talking enough or doing enough for his age, but then I see things like this and remember just what a big boy he is becoming. I have a hard time even remembering this stage!  The days may be long but they go way too fast!  The video also reminded me that even at this young age, they are watching our every move.  He was modeling this prayer after what he saw us do before every meal.  Which got me thinking ...what else is he modeling?  Are my actions and attitudes something I would want him to imitate?  I must admit, this precious video of my little man was a much needed reality check and reminder for this momma!



Have a great weekend!

  1. I miss that little guy so much! It makes me sad that he's gotten so big, and I haven't gotten to experience any of that with you guys! Please keep taking lots of pics and videos, so that those of us who live far away can see him growing! :)
