The days are long, but the years are short.

The title of this post is probably one of the most apt descriptions I've heard to describe motherhood/parenthood.

The photos below are a reminder of just how short the years are.   The first photo is Augie at about 11 weeks old.  The second photo is of Huxley at pretty much the same age and Augie.  The second photo was taken on a Tuesday, which is the only day I have both boys by myself all day and, consequently, one of those loooooooonng days referenced by that wise person who coined the phrase above.  And yet the years are so very short.  In a flash, Huxley will be the size of Augie in the second photo.
