..Even children get older, I'm getting older, too...

This weekend, we celebrated the first birthday of Baby Fish. There was cake, pizza, goldfish crackers, balloons, family and friends. Captain Max said, "So, he's not a baby now, right?" I have been thinking about that all week long. My babiest baby is past the newborn, infant, totally dependent stage. He's trying to walk, communicate with us (in our language!), and learning to find his own way. I see it every day, in everything he does, his independence growing.
I'm so proud of these two little boys, full of spirit, fire and determintaion. I hope that they will find some time in their busy days to curl up on my laps and be my babies now and then.
