I was flicking through the camera yesterday at the photo's that Loopy & Fonzy take.
There are a lot of out of focus ones, some funny in your face ones but the ones that for whatever reason tugged my heart strings are the ones of their little chubby fingers.
These I've forgotten about with the big ones...I can't remember what their little chubbies looked like, I never thought I would need to 'imprint' them on my mind.
I remember the first tooth, smiles, words, steps, days at school, nights away
I remember holding RV's hand as he fed and him holding my thumb in his hand and his whole thumb being so much small than my thumb nail! And now he has great bear paws for hands
These little things I miss
The stubby, chubby little fingers
and how small they look/looked
Abba always had thinner fingers and Lolly who was & is the skinny minny of the family but both of them had those gorgeous chunky little fingers that toddlers get
sigh...
I must remember to stop blinking

I know exactly what you mean, my two are ten and [in three weeks] eight and I find it hard to remember before they got so tall and huge handed. Before they cared about their hair and okay *big sigh*.
ReplyDeleteYou sound pensive this week, are you blue? Soon as I said blue there I thought of your plates on sale. I want, I want!!
Have a good weekend...xx
I had a 'run in' with my eldest Abba, some days it's harder to shrug your shoulders and bite your tongue!
ReplyDeleteOh to be 19 again & the world spins just for you :)

Awww, aren't they so cute? If only they stayed like that for a little longer than they do.
