The End . . . of Babies

So the end of school is near for my little princess. I can't believe it is already May. She is going to be leaving preschool and next year will be in kindergarten and I can't believe it. Sometimes I look at her and I have to do a double take because I am expecting someone smaller more baby like and not the big girl that is in front of me.
In fact, the other day I went to the park with a friend and I was looking around for Grace and couldn't find her, I started to get nervous, when my girlfriend said, there she is right there under the slide, and I looked quickly and said that it wasn't her . . . that little girl was too big to be mine, but low and behold it was.
She does her dance recital next week, and her graduation two weeks following. I am going to try not to cry when my baby walks in her little cap, but I am sure I will. I have recently been so taken with how big my little ones have gotten, they are growing so fast right before my eyes.
My Benjamin, my little man is growing like a weed, talking like crazy, and moving non stop. Although they are getting big, my heart sometimes still sees them toddling around in a diaper and a onesies with a juice stained mouth, and cookie on their faces, and I think it might always be that way.
