Claire is finally growing, and this means we are moving out of newborn diapers. It's one of many Changes that will occur which signal the end of my mothering. I guess it's not really the end of mothering, it's the shift of mothering older children. I am so sad to know I will never have another newborn baby. So each one of these little changes sticks with me for a bit. It feels like a strange little milestone worth noting.
I am sitting here nursing Clair and I know there's many many years of mothering babies left in my life. These little special moments, feel hard to hold onto. I will surely miss them.
