Don't Let My Baby Grow Up

The other day I walked into Carter's room and heart hit my throat when I saw this hanging on his wall:
It's a darling little girl!



Thank goodness it's ONLY his little pen pal cousin who had sent him a letter earlier that day. But still....it's only a matter of time before there will be "girls" taped to his walls and I won't be the center of his world anymore. I'm not so sure I'll be able to share him very well.

Elena, it won't just be the walls. It will be facebook, texts, emails... brace yourself! :-)

These are precious and important days right now. Savor them. (I know you do!)

Oh, wow! Is that what I have to look forward to???? Oh, no!

:) He's such a cutie! I wouldn't be surprised if his picture is on a few girls' walls.

I am sorry to be the one to break it to ya, lady, but most likely HE will be the one hanging on girls' walls, being chased at recess, and just plain bothered by all the girl attention that is sure to come his way as he starts to grow up! It's tough being the mom of such a handsome little boy...

That is so cute that he taped the picture up!
And Oh My you are right - it happens all too soon but don't despair I have found that boys always love to hug their mama's!!

Oh my gosh... it does happen all to soon.. When my son first got married I had a very hard time knowing that I was not the most important lady in his life... that I would not get to be the one that he shared his dreams his thoughts with.. There are days when I would give anything to say... Son would you clean your room, or do you want to go with me to the movie.. Yes they do growup all too soon.

Awww...I love that he hung it up!

Katie's walls are covered with Twilight posters...and her own drawings. Now she is asking for rock band posters for Christmas. It's a whole new age dawning!
