    *sob* I know!! My baby girl is 2, the boy 5, and they grow so fast. I actually look forward to a small head cold so they’ll let me hold them. Your girl is just beautiful. Mine won’t let me cut her hair or pull it back. “No tails, no tails!” she screams when she sees me come towards her.

    • Cynthia says:

      Hi Ribbit, my daughter will let me pull her hair back but it never stays in! I most do that girls hair close to a dozen times a day! I just can’t believe how much she has grown in this past year.

  2. I’ve always thought they grow so fast because we water them well :) . Happy gardening to you!

    • Cynthia says:

      Very funny. :D She does love to water the garden and play out in the sun so maybe that is the secret to her growing so fast this past year! You might be on to something…..

  3. Mine grew so fast…and now she’s 21! Time flies when you’re having fun;-) Your daughter is a sweetheart.

      My oldest is 15 so I know first hand how quickly this years just fly on by. It scares me to think he only has 3 more years left under our wing. GULP!!

    Darling girl . Mine are so big now.

    • Cynthia says:

      Thank you Deb. I have noticed your monkeys have grown quite a bit from the pictures you posted last year of them. Someone in my family once said you need to put a brick on their head to stop them from growing so fast. Wonder if it works? LOL :)

  5. Karen says:

    Aw, what a cutie! She’s not that grown up yet, not compared to mine anyway. How nice that she likes to help mommy’s plants grow.

    • Cynthia says:

      Hi Karen :)

      It is cute that she likes to “help” Mommy in the garden. Although I have to watch her as she tends to drown the poor plants. You can tell she is proud of herself though so it is pretty cute to see.

    Oh yes! So fast. My first born is 25, my youngest 17. Makes me feel old! Sure looks to me like you’ve got a gardener in the making here. An awfully cute on too.

    • Cynthia says:

      Thank you Grace. Of course we think she is pretty darn cute. :) I would very much enjoy it if she turns into a gardener like her mommy. My two older boys enjoy the garden (especially the fruits and veggie aspect of it!) but pretty much leave it to me.

  7. So cute!

    They sure do grow fast! I can’t believe how my 11 year old son is growing this year. He’s turning into a young man. sigh…

    • Cynthia says:

      I know what you mean Toni. My youngest son is 10 and has always been my “little man” but lately he has been acting so grown up. I look at him and think, “where did my baby go???”

  8. Faith says:

    It breaks your heart, doesn’t it! LOL I have always wanted to carbon copy each of my children for every year…. well except for a couple during the teen years. LOL

    She is adorable. May the Lord bless you time together and may your hearts and lives always be intertwined.

      Thank you for that sweet and thoughtful comment Faith.

      My eldest is 15 and I just can’t believe how fast the time has flown by. I wish I could slow down the clock on this one as she is my only girl and the baby of the family. It seems as the years go by they grow faster and faster and I don’t want that to happen with my baby girl!

  9. Victoria says:

    It’s nice that you’re noticing already how fast they grow. Can’t believe mine are 23 and 25!

    • Cynthia says:

      Hi Victoria,
      Like I mentioned above, my eldest is 15 and I just can’t believe he is that old already. I do not want the years to fly on by with this one but they already are!

  10. My baby is now two and he seems to be growing faster than the borage in my garden…sniff…Kim

    • Cynthia says:

      I think the time spent in the garden makes them grow even faster don’t you think? Maybe all that watering is having an effect on her…. ;)
