A Sad Goodbye

Last night, we sold our stroller...and I had a little bit of a breakdown. I have never been the mom that is sad that my babies are growing up. I honestly think that they are more fun every single day than they were the day before (well almost, they have been throwing some deadly fits lately). But when I put the stroller up for sale I felt a little pang inside of me, that my babies are no longer babies, and when I was talking to my mom about selling it that feeling came back. It didn't take long to sell, and once it was gone, I did have a little cry. The past 2 and half years have gone by SO FAST. I can't believe that in 4 short months the boys will be turning three...THREE!!! Anyways I just felt the need to post a goodbye to our wonderful stroller...we had a lot of good times with this baby!
