I had "The moment"!

Today I had "The Moment".

It all started this afternoon when the fatigue overcame my 34 year old, 35 week pregnant body and it was all I could do to sit on the floor with the squishy blocks and half-heartedly build an elephant castle with my boys.

We recently discovered the cable music channel entitled, Toddler Tunes and it gets us through the afternoon witching hour. The song Rainbow Connection, sung by Kermit the Frog came on and I lost it! I used to sing that song to Bo when he was colicky and I was up ALL night! I had to run to the bathroom and hide so the little guys wouldn't see me cry!

It just suddenly hit me that they're all getting so big so fast! It's so cliche', but it really is kind of sad to look at my little men and know that I can't get any of the baby moments back.

I'm not even really attached to the infant stage. Breast-feeding is a chore to me, carrying someone around ALL the time bugs me, and let's face it, they're not that attractive with no teeth!

But it still makes me a little sad. Every day they get a little bigger and a little bit more independent. My role as playmate is already starting die out a little when the neighborhood kids come around. I wish I could freeze these moments and just play on the floor for a few years (well, with an hour workout break included, of course)!
