Wise beyond her years (6/24/13)

Heard tonight as we got ready for Baby Tait's 2nd bday dinner:

Mommy to Quinn, holding her purple butterfly purse: "what's in your bag?"
Quinn: "my lipstick." 
Mommy: "are you treating to dinner, too? Got your wallet ?"
Quinn: "mommy, no! I'm just a little kid. I will buy dinner when I'm 4 cuz now we are just little kids." 

So awesome. 

You've also said, "mommy, you are the best ever. " followed by a big hug.  I also loooove when you tell me you love me to the moon & back! And to the sun, too. 

I simply cannot get enough of you. You look so grown up (& silly - see pic) ...

(I also love how Tait hangs on my like a little monkey & sticks his little fingers down my shirt.)

Time is flying & I just want to make it stand still so I can soak up every second.

 ... because look how much you have grown & changed!  I found the photo below searching for the one above taken on Tait's 2nd birthday.
Sniff, sniff, siiiiiigh ....  My fave Jim Croce song comes to mind ... I held you in my arms as a babe & danced with you to this ...


If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty, except for the memory of how
They were answered by you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with


All my love for always! ... To the moon, to the sun, & back !!

Mommy
