Time Moves On


If there's one thing for sure.........it's that time marches on, kids get bigger, and things change. Who was once little is now big, the follower becomes the leader, the "baby" is now the big guy. I have a great picture of Lizzy and Peter outside lying on a blanket. Peter is just a few days old and Lizzy is looking at him, holding his hand. She seems to be peacefully smiling at him, already in sync with her new brother. This picture of Peter and Catherine immediately reminded me of that moment. There's already a connection there, ready to blossom into a friendship. I worried that Peter might have a tough time adjusting to a new baby in the house. I imagined it would immediately be Lizzy and the baby that would become a team, and Peter might be left out. Quite the opposite has happened. Peter has emerged as one of Catherine's biggest fans. He's quick to give her a kiss, loves to snuggle with her, and is often reminding me how adorable she is. So far being stuck in the middle is the perfect fit for Peter.
