[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gosh this thread turned nasty.

OP, I totally get it. Mine are a bit younger but I find them growing up to be extremely bittersweet. Especially my youngest because it means the end of a chapter of life. I think it's very normal! I love my babies and of course I miss things about them when they were littler. It's also just an unrelenting reminder about the passage of time in general. No real advice besides the obvious (focus on the positives,  be grateful they are another year older and still healthy, make plans for the future to look forward to) but I just wanted to say I totally get it.

+1 OP
When you love a stage of life you are in and something symbolizes that stage coming to an end, it is natural to feel sad. Dont listen to the haters on this post- theyre looking too deep into it and you are allowed to be sad your babies arent babies anymore, just as you will feel sad when your teens go to college. You are happy for them and their progression thru life, but you are sad the particular chapter is over. Im with you![/quote]
