My little man lost his 1st tooth!!!

I can't believe it! He is old enough to lose his teeth! They grow up so fast right before you eyes and you don't even realize it. Eli will be 6 in just a few days. I thought back the other day to what I was doing 6 years ago and how it felt knowing I was about to be a new mommy. It was really overwhelming but I don't think I realized just how overwhelming until we got ready to bring him home from the hospital. I remember feeling really scared...thinking how was I going to take care of this brand new baby without the help of all the nurses. Then when we got him home it was like he just fit into our family. Like he was always there all along. I miss him being a baby. I miss holding him in my arms while I fed him. I miss playing with him while I changed his diaper(when he wasn't taking off crawling away from me). He was such a happy baby. I have loved every minute of watching him grow up and it never ceases to amaze me how he changes with every passing day. He started Kindergarten this year(homeschooling) and he is just amazing us at every new task. Nothing seems too difficult for him. He is reading several basic words and can count all the way to 100. Though I miss him being a baby, I love watching him accomplish all that he does everyday. He is such a great little boy and has such a great personality.
