They're growing so fast..

Ive just spent the morning shopping for a school uniform for my little boy. He is going in to juniors next week, juniors! How has that happened, it was only two minutes ago that he was starting Reception.

The lovely Liz Jarvis wrote a piece on her blog last week about wishing their lives away and it hit home, time has gone so fast, so with the littlest, Im reminded of a poem that Ive had stuck to my calender for the last seven years. I dont know who wrote it, but Im thankful they did. If anyone ever finds out, please say thanks for me :)

Babies grow up

we have learned to our sorrow

so try leaving jobs

that can wait till tomorrow.

Children grow older

while you're not looking

and years stretch ahead

full of cleaning and cooking.

So keep quiet cobwebs

and dust go to sleep,

I'm cuddling my baby

and babies don't keep.
