I remember back to the day when my first child was born and placed in my arms. How I longed to hold a child after suffering a miscarriage. I held onto him for a long time. He is now 15 years old and over six feet tall. I can’t hold him anymore since he is a lot bigger than me. How I long to go back 15 years and hold that sweet little baby and wish time would stand still for a while.
My other children are 14, almost 12, and 6. None of them like for me to hold them either, but I sometimes will pick up the six year old and just sit and hold her for a few minutes. She may not like it much, but one day she will be where I am and understand how a mom just wants to keep a hold on their children.
Time passes so fast and children grow up and move on. Savor the moments you have with your children and hold on tight to them.
