No more rocking

I decided to create this blog tonight when Blake decided that he no longer needs to be rocked. I get teared up even thinking about it! Since he's my second child, I already know how quickly time flies and that some things are never the same once they make certain choices. He's not even two yet, but he now climbs into his toddler bed with his horsie and tigger, throws the cover over himself and lays still. Most mothers would be like finally! No more long rocking and I can get something done. That is in the back of mind especially when he's clinging to my leg wanting to be held while I make dinner, but it's supposed to be on my terms!

I can remember when the doctor told me that I was having a boy and my first thought was what am I going to do with a boy?! Now, two years later and I love that little boy so much that I literally hurt inside. I can't see a little blond head of hair on a boy in public and not automatically think about Blake when he's not with me.
And have you ever heard a little 22 month old talk? So sweet! "futbowl" (football) "dink" (drink) "towl" (Coral) "ty" (Tyler) "soose me" (excuse me)

I will just have to keep all my musings here so that I don't forget all these wonderful memories.
