All I want is for this moment to sloooooooow down
When they were small,
I was super impatient.
Bored by the endless diapers
the monotony of feeding,
and cleaning,
and laundry.
Could not wait for
time to speed up.
And suddenly they’re here
skiing away from me.
Too fast.
And all I want is for
this moment
to sloooooooow down.
Can you relate?

Until next Sunday,

It is brave of you to admit to the boredom and tedium in caring for infants. I felt the same, and can't imagine the doubling factor of raising twins. And, like you, as soon as they could get in and out of their car seats on their own, life became a whole lot more fun. I remember the day I put my eldest on a carousel, and I stood there watching him go round and round, all on his own. I got all teary eyed as I realized he was independently moving through the world. Now he's 37 years old; I never stopped missing him.
Absolutely Lizzie. Raising 5 kids, and working f/t I held lots of resentment and exhuastion. And now they are all adults and I wish I would have stopped and enjoyed the moments more.
