She herself has flown, now, but I'll be forever grateful for her gentle prodding for me to enjoy the moments when mine were snuggly and little. But I also need to enjoy the moments *now*. Thanks for taking up where Mrs. Murray left off. When mine were young, we had an elderly neighbor that reminded me over and over that the minutes drag but the days fly.

But you're right -- she's growing up. At age four, her mantra is "I'll do it myself." There are times I don't want to hear that, even though I tell myself it is what *must* happen for her to grow. No one tells us moms that we'll mourn the time that passes or that letting go of the overwhelming love we have for our children will be so heartbreaking. It's not in the parenting books, is it? Then again, when I talk to moms whose children are grown, I see love changed not love lost. So, maybe I need to stop wanting time to stand still and just sit back and appreciate my little girl as she becomes more independent. Lately, people say she looks like me. That's new.
