Growing up, growing out.

by existere

You walked off side by side, smiling at the grass and trees and sun.

This is your second spring. Last year at this time you could barely sit.

Today you ran off, shouting like little dew soaked warriers, arms spread wide and smiles stretched wider.

We stood behind you, slowly walking along, watching you grow up and grow out into the world.

We talked about how we loved you both, so much. How happy we are. How awesome you are.

Thank you.

Dammit, you’re making me want twins!! Seriously, I’ve been feeling the twin vibe for weeks now… and I really don’t want to get pregnant again for AT LEAST two years.

Beautiful to the point of making me teary.

That was beautiful ! I couldn’t help but think when 20, 30 years from now, they will read those lines on this very blog. Touching.

How sweet! My twins (girls) are now 10 months and THIS spring they can barely sit up by themselves. Next year we’ll have something like yours right there.
