Her little white dress now hangs in her room.
A dress she wore when she was so little.
I can not believe how much she has grown.
Where has my little baby girl gone?
This little girl of mine was born 5 1/2 weeks premature...She was so tiny...
A little blessing. I couldn't wait for the day that she would be able to wear this darling dress.
The day came when she could finally fit into it.
She was just starting to sit up at the time.
She was about 6 months old... So sweet, so little, so adorable.
She wore that little dress for months...Then one day she grew out of it.
It was bittersweet.
It saddened me in a way, that she would no longer be that tiny little babe which I could hold in my arms, yet happy too, that she was growing into a fine little girl. Though she is growing up before my eyes, I can still hold her in my arms and enjoy each moment we have. I sat in her room not too long ago, starring at that little dress hanging there...amazed at the time that has passed before us. I am truly blessed to have this maiden, my little young woman in the making as my daughter.
Yet, I ponder...Not too far off in the distant future she will
one day be wearing another white dress.

I cherish the moments.

What a sweet dress and sweet memories. I remember when my girls were little to try to enjoy it, knowing they would grow up soo soon. And now they are, but it still seems too fast xoxo Clarice
ReplyDeleteOh Mica this made me cry. She was such a precious baby girl and I missed her growing out of that dress being so far away. She is growing into such a beautiful girl soon to be a women. Yes tears will flow that day she puts on the other white dress.
ReplyDeleteLove you guys
What a sweet post. Okay, I'm starting to lose it. Did I already leave a comment here? I know I meant too but I got distracted and walked away.
ReplyDeleteOh well - I loved this post. Just looking at my girl's little cherry dress took me back in time and how I miss that adorable girl - but at the same time I would never trade the sweet, kind, smart girl I have now. Too bad we can't have it all! :)
