T turned seven over the weekend. This growing-up business is happening way too soon for my husband and I. We want to enjoy her more.

I wish I could share some photos but now that T is growing-older I’ve decided to refrain from posting photos of her where you can see her face. If you’ve noticed, it’s always from afar, or her back or side view. She’s growing up you see, and I want to protect her privacy.

The scholars believe that it’s because God rested on the seventh day after creating the world. In Judaism, the universe is made of seven heavens. And then of course, there’s the seven deadly sins.

Ah parenthood, I didn’t anticipate that watching your child grow-up could actually be painful. It sounds selfish I know, but sometimes I just want her to stay little just little a wee bit more.
Now excuse me while I pick-up more wrapping paper off the floor. I think I’ve forgotten what it looks like!
