*disclaimer: i'm not a poet. at all. this is not a real poem. because i'm not a poet. i just like rhyming. maybe too much. and i'm not good at rhythm. which is why this isn't a poem. it's more like a rhymey prose type piece.
precious little daughter of mine
how can i stop the time?!
i want to bottle up your baby-ness
hug you, hold you, give a precious kiss
the years, they pass and it'll be tough
so i'm going to cherish every warm snuggle
and enjoy each sweet cuddle.
this week, sweet daughter sage
you became a walking babe
and while you still have learning to do
it's fun to watch you waddle, as you discover the world anew...
so i guess this means my baby's growing
the days, no, they are not slowing
-carissa
linking up with my friend, rachel, today. because this walking stuff was the best part of my whole week.

I like that poem! It was great, Carissa! You understated yourself. And the sentiments were so sweet, just like all the photos! :)
That was really sweet - I love the poem and the photos.
Your poem was terrific! And your daughter (and son) are precious. You're right, those years DO fly by... and then you're a grammy like me. haha
You are a poet! I love it and agree whole heartedly with the sentiment! :) Happy Friday!
So sweet. This just warms my heart b/c there is nothing like a mother and her daughter. Thank you for sharing those sweet beautiful words and awesome pictures.

That is so cute.

as for sweet sage...she's growing up!

I think you're a beautiful poet. This post made me just a bit teary -- those days when those sweet babes of ours begin to walk are so tender. And bittersweet. And full of momma proudness.
Sage is so cute. I can still remember that cute face of hers nestling in your shoulder when I tried to say "hi " to her. And, lol, at that point I knew I better not try to hold her. :)
Love ya sweet friend. Have a wonderful Friday -- and thank you again for linking up with me.
Grateful for you.

That's my level of rhyming too! haha, I thought it was cute and your non poem poem was perfect!
Tell her if she walks, she won't have the adorable baby fat legs!! She can't lose those!! ;)

Beautiful people.
Hope you have a BEAUTIFUL weekend!

Absolutely, positively TOO DOGGONE SWEET!!! :) Sage is just precious and your love for her is, too. :) Lucky little girl to have you for a mommy. :)
That second pic is so cute! And I LOVE your blog header ~ very pretty! :)
You are just the best! A great photographer and an amazing writer. What a delight to read and see this entry this evening. Sage is just adorable and I promise that you will not turn around twice and you'll be preparing for her wedding. Boo-Hoo! Enjoy, enjoy!
Oh so fun!!!!!! Love that she is walking with those beautiful chunky thighs! I recognize the jean bloomers! Love!
Well, I happen to think it's one of the best poems I've ever read ;) And the pictures took it over the top!
precious and too sweet. this makes me so sad because our babies are growing up! Her hunky legs are too cute not to see waddle! love you carissa! :)
Check out those legs!!!! So precious when they start walking...She's early isn't she?
Such a beautiful post to your sweet baby girl! Those pics are sure to be treasured by both of you. The love you have is quite evident.
I found you through Adriel.
They. Grow. Too. Fast.
I have a 3 year old and a 5 month old, it's inconceivable how big they are. My baby is still a baby, but not, and my 3 year old is speaking "adult".
It just shouldn't be ;)
Btw, your mom is gorgeous. I remember when I was 18 everyone thought I was 14-15, but I was aware enough back then to know my friends all thought my mom was in her 30's when she was in her 40's.
aw wow, i guess they all grow up hey? and waaaaay too fast!
congrats to lil sage on her new milestone.
& btw - you are totally a poet in my books. that was well put together :)
