It’s a funny and bittersweet thing – toddlerdom.

For example:

• When did we go from describing the place she sleeps as a “nursery” to her “room?”
• When did she start having a preference on which shoes she’d like to wear?
• When did she learn that she can decide who to kiss?

I’m – at the same time – so wistful about and grateful for how fast she grows. She confounds me daily, this ridiculous creature who made me a mom.
