One: Baby smiles. Baby smells.

Baby snuggles. Late nights. Worth it.

First steps. First words. Love.

Two: Up and running.

Bouncing off the walls. So fast.

Watch for tantrum time.

Three: A world of words.

Now the questions come. So smart.

You’re a person now.

Four: No more baby.

Now you’re a big kid. So strong.

Off for preschool fun.

Five: loose teeth, big grins

kindergarten learning time.

Growing up, all day long.
