Kalyn's new do

Check out Kalyn's new hairdo! Just in time for school to start back. She has grown up, matured so much this summer. I can hardly believe it. Seems like only yesterday I was fixing bottles and hunting down pacifiers. Where did all the time go? I want to get the book "LET ME HOLD YOU LONGER" for her. I have been meaning to and just never have purchased it. It talks about all the "last" things we forget to celebrate. We rejoice over every first step, first word, first day of school. But what about all those lasts...like, the last bottle, the last diaper, the last baby coo, the last time we picked them up off the floor, the last time we had to fix the cereal bowl, reach the shelf, fix a drink, etc. If us parents knew the exact moment of those precious "lasts", we would be heartbroken and want to hold on to them forever. I find myself experiencing more and more of those "lasts" than I truly want to.

I have that book and I can barely read it without crying.
