My son is a full grown man

Well… it happened. My baby is actually one. It’s really real. I know for some it seems like a silly thing to be freaking out about but, HE’S ONE. How on Earth did that happen?!? As a new parent, the concept of time is something I’m still trying to come to grips with. You know that old saying, “time flies!” - uhh yeah. You’re telling me. I never really understood that until becoming a parent. Now I’ve seen my son grow right before my eyes and it really is a surreal experience.

When baby J was born, I remember the moment he was placed on my chest and I thought “okay, I’m never putting you down - I’m gonna hold you every second!” - funny. Now he’s walking (nearly running) literally everywhere, drinking from his sippy cup, saying “dada” when he should really be saying “mama”, and demanding goldfish crackers. Yep. TIME FLIES.

All I did was blink. Hold on to your littles, everyone.
