she can see you now...

More on the findings of her visit and her funny dilation pic here

Her favorite color is green.  She should definitely go with green, don't you think?





She's more than just a little pleased to have her glasses.

After the eye check up, she ran, and I mean literally, to the eye glasses store next door while I paid the doctor co-pay.  She tried on 50 pairs of glasses.  Some for the kicks of it, but most because she just really wanted to find the pair of glasses for her.

I'm smiling because she found them on the clearance rack at a fraction of the price of any of the others.

I don't miss the baby stage of life.  Scratch that, that's not entirely true.  I miss how they smelled.  I miss pressing my nose to the top of their head and breathing in that soft, sweet smell of babies.  I miss the chubby cheek smiles.  I miss the little voices.  But I never wanted to press the pause button on life.  The time of babies and toddlerhood was pure chaos for me (having 4 under the age of 5) and the day Cali started 1st grade was a joyous day indeed.  Considering the circumstances of now being a working mom, daycare was a worry I was glad to not have to balance anymore. 

But I look at that picture of Casidee and my chest swells.  And I wonder...

Does anyone know where that pause button is?

I couldn't agree with you MORE! I was just having this thought Saturday morning as my midgets were anxiously waiting for the chance to get out of the door to play and away from Mom. Oh how I wish these years would slow down.

Your 'baby' looks all grown up in her glasses and boy is she pretty. Good work Mom!
