One Year
Written by The Lassie
Our Munchkin turned one year old on May 13 and even now I hesitate when people ask me how old she is – she is still just my baby, it seems impossible she should have been with us for the past 12 months. It feels like she is very close to taking her first few unaided steps – she cruises along furniture like there is no tomorrow and uses her baby buggy to whiz through our increasingly crowded apartment.
Our Munchkin will start attending daycare in August and I am far from ready to let her go. Alas, I have no choice in the matter, as I have to return to uni to complete my Masters. Next May then, I will have to return to work as well and I’d prefer to have uni behind me at that point. I can’t begin to imagine what it would be like trying to juggle work, uni and family life with a toddler. We shall see how all that will work out, though, as we seem to have a bit of a problem even finding an adequate childcare facility. There are so many things involved that I can’t quite seem to wrap my head around – I am running in circles and at this point simply can’t make the decisions that need to be made.
Before this tiny little nonsensical post turns into even more of a ramble, I will leave you with new pictures of our littlest baby girl.
First, for all to see, a picture of the birthday dress I made for our Munchkin:
