Oh Snap Wednesday {linky} - 8/31

{Oh Snap}

My first born, my sweet baby girl is turning into a little lady right before my eyes. I often wish I could freeze time, spending every minute with her making castles out of blankets, playing dress up - instantly becoming the two most beautiful princesses in all the land, sipping tea on a picnic blanket and dancing to "Stuck Like Glue." But at the same time, I can't wait to see what the future holds for my precious gift. I'm so excited to watch her continue to grow, learn, mature.

Noelle,
You love animals. Brinkley is your partner in crime. I love listening to your belly laugh when you two are running through the house. 


You are silly, graceful, and beautiful.
You are adventurous.


And I love that you always want to hold my hand.


So keep on growing, sweet Noelle. Just do it a little slower, okay?
Love,
Mommy

    Sweet post. It made me think of two things:
    1) They don't slow down ever. My girls are 10 and 7, and it feels like they were just babies.
    2) My baby has the same name as your dog :)

    What a precious post and such sweet sentiments. Yes, they definitely grow up too fast. I have a 19, 18 and 15 year old in addition to my younger ones that are featured on my blog. Seeing how fast they have grown up has made me realize how much I have to enjoy every moment with my little ones.
    Thanks for linking up to Tots and Me.
