They Don’t Stay Small Long

Ashton Kever January 21, 2022

There is something truly magical about the infant stage.

They require so much from us, but they give so much as well. There is nothing quite as comforting as snuggling with a baby. It brings comfort to my soul, healing to my heart, and peace to my racing mind. God knew that mommas would need comfort and healing emotionally and mentally after bringing a new life into the world.

But our babies grow so fast. In 2 months, my baby gained 3lbs and has almost outgrown her 0-3 sized clothes. My first baby will be turning 2 in a couple weeks. It seems like just yesterday that my babies were born.

I wouldn’t trade the last 2 years for anything and nothing makes me more proud than watching my children grow and learn. But I often miss the cuddles and slower pace of life that babies bring.

I could put my baby down to get housework done. But the housework will always be there. My baby? She’ll only be little for a few more months. My son? He’ll only be one a couple more weeks. I’m trying to soak up any cuddles he’ll give me because someday soon he might not want to cuddle.

My point in all of this? Enjoy this life. You only get one, and if you’re lucky enough to find something or someone you’re passionate about, soak in every minute of your time with your passion. Because time is a thief, and there will be a time when you can’t hold your baby, you can’t decorate that cake, or you can’t spend time with your friends anymore.
