They say babies grow up so fast

 They say babies grow up so fast

And at first you don’t really believe it
You think you have more time
More snuggles
More late night feeds
More sleepy smiles in your arms

But then suddenly
Their newborn clothes don’t fit
Their tiny hands start reaching for the world instead of just you
Their babbles turn into full sentences
And you realize they weren’t lying

It really does go by fast
So hold them close
Let the mess wait
Let the to-do list be unfinished
This season is fleeting
And you are going to miss it more than you ever thought possible
