I love when my girls aquire new skills, reach new milestones, and show increasing independence. BUT....boy, do I ever get a huge lump in my throat at every sign of their growing up. This one caught me completely off guard. We were at Wegmans and the girls were trying to squish into the car at the front of the cart-it was a tight squeeze with the winter coats! Alette said 'Mommy, we are just too big now...this is the last time we can be in here together'. Suddenly I was all sad and missing my little 'babies'.
On the other hand, if I do not have to push that ridiculously heavy and awkward cart around a grocery store ever again, I will be delirious.
