A new chapter.

In the next couple of weeks I have set a goal to transition our youngest son from a sippy cup to drinking from a regular glass. In my mind his use of a sippy cup is the one remaining remnant of his babyhood. We have given away all of our baby stuff to people who need them more than us. Never again will I change a diaper or push a Peg perego because my little boy is completely independent. I recognize that the sippy cup needs to go but there is this little piece of me that wants to keep him little for just a wee bit longer. Last night he fell asleep on me which is something he never does anymore. It made me remember the sweet moments when he contentedly lay in my arms for most of the day. Now he is too busy to be held for more than a minute. When the sippy cup leaves I know we will be starting a new chapter and am doing my best to look happily towards that moment.
