Earlier this year I read the book, "Tuck Everlasting" to my class. If you have ever read the book, you know that it is about this spring of youth out in the middle of the woods. If you drink from the spring you stay the age that you are FOREVER. It showed the pros and cons of drinking from the spring, and even though I know there were more cons....I really wish there was some sort of way to slow down time. My reasoning for all of this is that I cannot believe that in less than four months my Boo Bear is going to turn two. I have enjoyed so very much being a mom from day one on. Granted restless nights, sick baby, and injuries are not really enjoyable, I still wouldn't trade any of it for anything else in this world. We honestly have the happiest, funniest, loving, and adventurous child. I am scared to have another baby because I don't know how it would ever be possible to be blessed with two perfect children. BUT...and that is a big BUT for a reason- I want to give the gift of having a sibling to Blayze. He deserves to have someone to fight, play, laugh, run, and learn with. With much discussion with many other people I am learning that it really doesn't matter on how far apart your children are. Most people will tell you that the way they did it worked best. So...Josh and I will try sometime in the near future, but for now we just want to give Blayze as much one-on-one time that we can. If I could stunt his growth I would do it now for a little while. He says something new everyday. He learns how to do something tactile everyday. He laughs at anything everyday. AND most importantly he makes us feel so very blessed everyday. As I type this he is rolling around on the kitchen floor. I look down, and he gives me a big grin with the binky and all. Who could ask for more? Here is a pic of Blayze the day he was born.......
