I held Quentin a little longer tonight when I put him to sleep. Tomorrow is his first birthday, and while there isn't necessarily a hard line at the end of babyhood, this feels like one. Why is watching your children grow up so sad? Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that my son is healthy and growing. I'm just also sad that every day, I see less and less of my little baby. He ate cake for the first time yesterday. I think it's safe to say he likes cake. It was adorable and disgusting all at once. I loved it. Happy birthday, my little love. (don't worry, that is an unused plunger. i am a (slightly) better mom than that.)
