The times, they are-a-changing

Yesterday was a big day in our house--big in the sense that miss J officially started real, live, gen-u-wine hands and knees crawling yesterday. Yee-haw!

She'd been belly scooting for several weeks, hands just a pulling herself along while she scooted on her belly but now, now she has entered the land of the fully mobile baby. And now she, our home, the dogs, and everything else, will never be the same.

To see her crawling along last night, keeping pace with us from her room on one side of the house to ours on the other side (ours is a split plan home), and to see the incredible delight in her eyes and on her face while she did so, was too much. How I cried, but they weren't tears of sadness...they were of joy. Joy at her happiness and at how incredible it is to see the world unfold before her. It truly does blossom...

though words are inadequate.
