things change...

My babies are getting bigger, they are growing up... and it's happening right before my eyes, and honestly I'm not too sure I like it! Today Karlynn rolled completely over, with no hesitation and Simon got to watch her do it on Skype, and I could tell he was so proud :) It melted my heart to watch his eyes light up watching his daughter that he hardly knows. I hate saying that but its true... she was exactly 2 months old when he left, so there is no sugarcoating it, she doesn't know him. When he gets home she will be nearly 9 months old, there is no telling what she will be up to by then! Simon will come home to a completely different daughter than the one he left. And it tears me up insid knowing that.
Tonight while on Skype, Grayson sat and talked to his daddy for like 15 minutes, just like a big boy. Sitting indian style, using his hands with every single thing he said... "Ayyyy dadeee" "I ya you" (i love you) Of course Simon is the ONLY one he will halfway say words too, and I am perfectly okay with that! I am just happy that halfway around the world Simon gets to experience little pieces of their lives that are changing ever so quickly! I love watching Grayson's phone light up as the Skype call is connecting because he somehow knows that within a matter of seconds his daddy is about to appear and bless his heart he thinks he is really there! They play and talk and cut up just as if he were really here. I just sit back and watch and I am just amazed at how completely at peace Grayson is when his daddy is right in front of his face talking to him! I am blessed 120% and I am beyond thankful for these beautiful people he put in my life that complete my family!
Today was overall a near perfect day! We played outside almost all day so Grayson was in heaven, then we went and picked up Conner and went to Kid's Rule where again he was on cloud 9! I love days that are devoted strictly to my babies! I cannot wait until Karlynn is big enough to enjoy all the fun things I get to do with Gray!
