I just kissed my baby goodnight and put her in the bed for the last time as a 5 year old. Something about 5 still seems so little. There is still a certain catergory you feel like you fit into as a mother of a 5 year old. It feels like the end of an era. I am not sure I am emotionally ready to be the mom of just BIG kids. I know it sounds crazy but I never really thought about her being THE END. Who's to say we may try to adopt another beautiful member for our family one day (NO mother this is not an announcement) .
I just can't believe that in the morning (actually 6:58pm) my BABY will be six. I am so proud of her. She is so smart and funny - like my sister .
There was a time 6 years ago that a Dr. at Vanderbilt Hospital looked at my mom and grandmother and said "He had done all he good do and it was up to her. Sometimes babies with her condition just don't make it"
Her condition. Failure to Thrive.
Well, anyone who knew us then know it took a while. But thrive she did. And she is my beautiful BABY/BIG GIRL!
