Cherishing Each Moment

My sweet Chloe at only 2 months. 

I love watching Chloe blossom into a toddler, but when I look at this picture of her sweet face at only 2 months old I cant help but feel overwhelmed with emotion. In a few short weeks she will be one year old. Chloe is so much different now then when I took this picture of her, she is no longer a newborn, no longer and infant, she is a toddler. A toddler so full of curiosity and wonder, hungry for the world around her. Everyday she becomes more and more independent, more stubborn, more talkative, more expressive. It honestly blows my mind how quickly she grew and how fast this year flew by.

If I could give just one advice to a new Mom or an expecting Mother it would be this - be present in every single moment with your child, cherish each and every moment you spend with them, even the most difficult ones because before you know it your little newborn baby wont be a baby anymore.... and you can never get that time back.
