Lucky Maddie has been to 3 birthday parties, all in the last week. Lucky girl! Today we attended Andrew's 5th party.
As I was looking after Sophie, I realized how it seems your kids go from needing pretty much constant attention and supervision to hardly needing you around at all. It seems it has happened over night; I am just not exactly sure "which night" it happened. Madeline was so busy playing with the other kids, I don't think she called for me once. Sure I tried to encourage her to slow down enough to eat, use the bathroom, and apply sunscreen, but mostly I just cramped her independent style. She is definitely a confident and outgoing girl, and I think that will take her really far in life. I know, she's only five, but I am always thinking about what the future holds for my children . . .
One year old baby-buns, couldn't resist:
The pinata is always such a highlight. Again though, it makes me reflect on the early years . . . When our kids awkwardly held the bat, swung it weakly, hitting their target, if lucky. Well, those days are behind us. Look out Kindergarten, here we come!
