When Did This Happen?

Oh my goodness, this evening I had a startling realization while driving back from picking up my eldest.

I'm ashamed to say that I hadn't even noticed the difference until Bregon said something about it, either.

I should have noticed yesterday, and maybe a part of me did, but who knows now!

I had been sitting in the middle of my kitchen floor, playing with Kai and Husband, when Kian ran into the room, stopped short, smiled, then ran over to give me a great big Kian kissie.

He giggled the entire time, and seemed quite proud of himself and his kissies!

But, it wasn't until this evening that I realized how much Kian has changed.

He had started blowing Bregon Kisses from the moment he got into the car after film camp.

Then Bregon made mention that he was actually PUCKERING! Kian never puckers!

In fact, we have all become so accustomed to Kian and his wet, sloppy, open mouthed kissies, that I suppose we just accepted them as his social norm.

But, the fact is, he is growing up, and I almost was too busy and missed it.

This makes me sad to think that I almost didn't noticed any change in Kian kissies.

When did I get so busy that I stopped documenting those small but important little personal milestones?

Used to, I would try and make sure to blog about them so that I could print it out for the babies baby books, but it would appear that I am slacking a bit!

I'm not going to let myself get too busy again, that's for certain!

In fact, I have hauled out the camera, made sure that there are fresh batteries in it, and plan on taking a bunch of new pictures tonight.

It frightens me that I almost missed this! Now, I have to go and get some Kian kisses!
