Time Flies

I think the title of this post says it all. I just a few short days my little boy will be turning two and I don't know how to deal with that. Having a baby definitely makes time fly by because you're so busy watching them grow and having a good time doing, that you really don't watch the calendar or count the days. In fact, sometimes you wish that time would slow down. A part of me wants him to stay a baby forever but I know that's not possible. Everybody has to grow up. I am enjoying watching him grow and learn, especially when he discovers something new and for me it's like seeing something for the first time all over again.

I do have to say that I have the goofiest and happiest kid in town. There's literally not one time he's no smiling unless he's sleepy or hungry, and even then he'll laugh about it before he gets really upset. I do wish that he could communicate more verbally with us. I'm not sure if he has a speech delay, but I'm going to have him evaluated by Early Intervention just to make sure there's nothing wrong and to see if maybe he's just a late talker. I read to him almost every night. Nothing gets done on those nights when we're all tried and pass out, but he's definitely into books and enjoys when I read to him. I really hope the reading will eventually encourage him to talk. Other than that, he's a healthy and happy toddler who looks more like a 3 year old than an almost 2 year old. I'll post another entry about his birthday and his speech evaluation.
