Well, today my littlest one turns 3 years old. I can't believe it!!! I can remember the hospital, the odd sensation left by epidurals, the tiny meow of a cry that she gave..........refusing to let her go when I was wheeled into the NICU to see her for the first time, shocking the nurse when I asked to get up and walk a mere 3 hours after having DD by c-section. And of course, I remember calling Karen QofS and giving her all the details .
I can remember the trials of feeding and clothing such a tiny child - preemie bottles and doll clothes for the first few weeks!!!! I can remember going through reflux with her, not being able to sleep because of the fear, her being in physical therapy because of her delayed development............
then we moved to VA and when she was retested, she was at or above her age level!! She is now in preschool 1 morning a week and it just doesn't seem like she should be old enough....where did the time go???!!???
ARGH!!
And if her turning 3 wasn't enough, DS lost his first tooth yesterday!!! I can remember lots from his first weeks as well, so it doesn't seem possible that he should be in first grade and losing teeth already.
Larisa, in day 2 of the diet and exercise regimen but feeling old and decrepit
P.S. A group of friends got together and we shared photo albums...my comment to DH was, "My goodness, we were so young and skinny when we got married!!!"
