Growing

I posted pictures to my facebook page the other day. Some of which were from Sunday when we took the kids a park near our house. A year ago, Aly wouldn't have been able to do much other than slide and now she climbs everywhere and does all kinds of stuff. Andrea has learned to throw a Frisbee and is learning to catch it. She gets her clumsiness from me. Looking at those pictures, I am starting to realize how much time has flown by. It seems like yesterday that Alyson was a small baby who needed me for everything and now all she does is tell me "no". Andrea completely baffles me with her intellect and sarcasm. She's 9 and more sarcastic than some 20 year olds that I know. They are just growing up too darn fast. Before I know it, Andrea will be dating and Alyson will be in school. Scary, scary thoughts.

Then today, Aly and I ran some errands. We picked up Andi and then came home. After James came home, Aly and I helped with some laundry. We always fold the laundry in our bedroom since we have so many clothes. Aly crawled up on the bed and got under the covers. I told her "my bed" and she said "my bed" . Every time we would say "my bed" she would tell us we were wrong. LOL And then she would smile at us. We came downstairs, and she started playing with a book and started having a conversation with herself. Not sure what she was talking about but she was very amusing. LOL

Now just sitting here reflecting on the day. Sad that my kids are growing up but glad that I get to see it. Hope everyone has a great rest of the week. :)
