Where has the time gone??? My first little girl is 10 years old! It seems like yesterday I was bringing her home from the hospital wondering what in the world I was going to do with this little person! Do I pick her up or let her just lay there? How many times should I change her? What exactly should we be doing besides just sitting there watching her sleep? I wish I had a video of what we actually were doing that first week with her at home. Of course with the first baby I didn’t sleep for fear that I wouldn’t hear her if she needed me, or fear that she was going to stop breathing for some reason. I had all the paranoia that a first time mom should have. After 10 years I can honestly say that I am probably just as bad today as I was back then. Today is a different set of worries though. Is she going to fall out of the tree and break her arm? Is she going to ride her bike to fast and somehow fall and skin her leg? Is she going to miss me when she is sleeping over at a friends house?? I know these seem like minor worries but my heart still aches the same when she is out of my sight. I can’t say how much pride I feel when I look at her today as a big 10 year old. She is full of energy and spunk and her smile is a mile wide! One thing about Carley is that she is always having fun. That is exactly the way it should be. She is growing faster than I care for her to, but I know that she is a happy and healthy girl. I am looking forward to what she can accomplish in life. I know she will go far. So with that said I guess I will just do a rewind in my head of all the things she has done these past 10 years and keep those memories close to my heart because I know there are a lot more to come!!
