because she'll only be this little once

I stop everything else I'm doing and pick her up and cuddle her instead because she'll only be this little for so long...


...have hair as wispy as this


 hands this small


feet small enough to fit these


look like this


want to taste a Christmas stocking


fit in this antique rocking chair


have a head small enough for this fuzzy hat



scan a roomful of people and, when her eyes land on me, smile and begin to squirm with joy and excitement


be this little baby that weighs 15 pounds and 14.9 ounces


and make this very same expression
