As my eldest approaches 13 and my youngest 2, I too am mourning the changes. God! They can take my breath away. I'm even starting to count down the nappy changes... <br />It's new stages for all of us, I guess.

My 4 year old is fascinated by the idea of being a teenager and wants to know if everyone around her is one and when she'll become one herself. I hope you'll enjoy the teenage years much more than you think you will now - from reading your blog last couple of months I'm sure you'll see the positives.Zoyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05188606014773150853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-90511468696734270362011-03-17T11:49:47.748+11:002011-03-17T11:49:47.748+11:00Stunning Kate, just STUNNING!! lOve it so much it ...Stunning Kate, just STUNNING!! lOve it so much it hurts.<br />It's just stunning xoteddybearswednesdayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06068878478604992309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-75942599409822194382011-03-17T05:49:12.526+11:002011-03-17T05:49:12.526+11:00beautiful in every respect! just found you via max...beautiful in every respect! just found you via maxabella loves and thrilled i have. jane xjane@flightplatformlivinghttp://textgeorge.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-78966145512695287072011-03-17T00:25:48.746+11:002011-03-17T00:25:48.746+11:00i love to knit too, where on earth do you get a pa...i love to knit too, where on earth do you get a pattern for arm warmers?

I was happy to see that my little girl still really is a little girl trying to juggle the feelings that she sometimes has around friends of growing up too fast. I have decided to not watch the news after seeing so much devastation of Japan and I do hope that they can recover from this awful tragedy which is very terrifying still, and they probably face a lot more challenges ahead with the nuclear plant too.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02893692345113831018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-30159457463734870982011-03-16T11:58:54.033+11:002011-03-16T11:58:54.033+11:00These are gorgeous - going to check out the patter...These are gorgeous - going to check out the pattern now but am suspecting they might be beyond my knitting capabilities!!
