Time Speeding By

I am with my son all the time except for when I have to do a quick errand and he's with grandma. My maternity leave will be over in a couple of weeks and it's painful to think about. I have all of the normal fears that go with leaving your child for more than a few hours. Will he be taken care of the way that I take care of him? Will he be held when he's screaming his head off just because he needs some loving attention? Will he like his daycare person more than his mommy? I can't believe how fast time moves. It seems just like yesterday I was going into the hospital to have him. And now he is getting so big right before my eyes. The other day I was holding and feeding him and I remembered how extremely tiny he was when he came home from the hospital. He looked like a tiny little doll, his cries so soft, you had to be really close to him to hear it.

Now his face has rounded out and you can practically hear his cries down the street when he's hungry. He has no patience when it comes to his bottle! I just want to enjoy every single second with him. Even though it's hard sometimes, I love being at his beck and call throughout the day. More and more his personality is coming out and I like to think that he truly recognizes his mommy when I pick him up after a long nap. Gotta go, he is waking up and he's hungry!
