My baby is gone.
No longer content all day, every day; just most of the day.
No more laying and rolling; now she's crawling & yearning to walk.
Instead of letting brother steal from her, she squeals & clings to her toys.
Now she knows what she wants & when she wants it.
My toddler is here.
She is more active than ever, crawling as quickly as possible to an open door that leads outside.
Now she wants to join in on the fun at the park; sliding, swinging, or playing in the sand.
She is social & has to sit with us at the dinner table, even if she was just fed.
She is our comic relief who tries to get a second or third laugh whenever we laugh at her.

Such a bittersweet when they stop being the baby.
