She still needs.....

So life is never easy.  There are bills to pay (ugghh never ending story), events to attend, work, and the little one always asking "Mommy please play."  

I reveal in those moments when my sweet gal asks me to play!  It may mean that the dishes don't get done, the laundry is not folded, or dinner isn't ready at the exact time I wanted.  But I have come to realize these are the most precious moments. My little one is not going to be small forever and on that note.....

she still needs to sleep with us

she still needs to nurse

she still needs to rear face in her car seat

she still needs to be rocked

she still needs the sweet affection her family provides

she still needed kisses when she bumps her knee

she still needs reminders of boundaries

she still needs us to feed her at times

she still needs the opportunity to be Miss Independent (she is a human being after all)

she still needs to sing songs and rhymes all days of the week

she still needs Momma to pack her lunch to make appropriate food choices

she still needs to be read to and offered opportunities for play

she still needs outdoor time and the experiences that nature offers

she still needs to be my little girl........which will never change!
