So I cried tonight..

I cried because it sunk in that I have a 6 month old daughter. I love this age, lots of learning and discovering but truthfully I want by tiny back. The newborn stage is the stage I longed for when becoming a mum. The reality is that, that stage passes by so quick. The blur of learning to be a mum, to care for this tiny human being, the tiredness of pregnancy, labour and just adjusting to having a newborn takes over you that you don't get a chance to really embrace it. Embrace those special moments of just cuddling them, watching them and listening to them. They are the moments that they really grow and change, I wish I could go back to that without all of the tiredness and the learning and just hold her, watch her and listen to her as much as its hard not to but those memories slip away with every new memory she makes I guess that's the bittersweetness of it all. 

I vow to treasure every moment from now on, I don't want to blink and it be her 1st 2nd or even 5th Birthday yet I want to enjoy the now.
