Growing too fast

Joonas turned 6 today and Emmi turned 15 months. Time sure flies!! My favourite saying for this time of my life is that the days are long but the years are short. Some days seem to last forever: the boys fight, Emmi won't nap, the house is a mess, there's nothing for dinner...But looking back, the time has gone incredibly fast. It makes me sad that I no longer have a baby. And that Joonas is such a big boy, let alone Matias. That's why I am trying my hardest to slow down and make time for them. Tonight, Joonas asked me to lay beside him when he was going to sleep. I didn't really want to, but I did. There will be a day when no one wants me to sleep next to them. I dread that day.
