My kids are growing up so fast!!

So I'm sitting here listening to some music, my hubby is playing some game called blood bowl and I'm just emotional over my kids. They are cute as pie and growing up way to fast. My son grew from my baby to a little boy all from a haircut. Seriously, over a haircut. He had shaggy hair and I cut it off and now he looks like a little boy then my baby. He'll be 3 at the end of April and I was talking with a friend of mine last Friday and she met my son when he was 9 months old and we couldn't believe how much he has grown since then. She witnessed when he started standing up, to crawling, to walking and now a little bit of talking. He's so trying with the talking but he's not quite there yet. His speech therapist is doing wonders with him and one of these days he will get where he needs to be. I work with him everyday doing his exercises. My daughter is going to be 5 soon. I can't believe I'll be a mother to a 5 year old. She already thinks she's smarter than me. Ha Ha!! Being a parent is the hardest job I have ever taken on. I actually didn't think it would be so hard. I feel like a drill Sergeant(sp is this right, who knows) at times or a broken record. I think I'm the paranoid parent because of the things I did as a kid. Oh man, wish I could put my kids in a bubble to keep them safe from this crazy world we live in. I have two great kids even when they drive me up the wall. I'm so blessed they are mine. Take care, peace!!!
