I'm Two!!!

Our little man is two!!! I feel like someone hit the light switch, and he grew up exponentially over the last few weeks. He is maturing, and has somewhat lost that baby face. I put jeans on him a couple of days ago, and for some reason it made him look that much older. As Andrew put it recently, "Has anyone discovered a way to stop time yet?" I have always heard about the terrible two's, but nobody told me that the two's would also mean losing my baby to a little man. It's sad, and yet also exciting. We are having so much fun with Joshua as he daily learns new things. He is more independent, more social, more tender towards his sister, his vocabulary is exploding, as is his understanding of the world around him. So, as we say farewell to the once dependent baby, we welcome a blossoming young boy who continues to bless our lives with his sweet personality. PS: Has anyone discovered a way to stop time yet?
