baby bump

Did you know I've been hiding a little secret.


Our family is growing.
Growing by one little baby doll.


And one very imaginative four year old


whose pretend play requires mommy


to pretend she's pregnant.


We're home alone just the two of us these days


so I'm obliging.


And when I went to capture this moment
I remembered this picture of her growing inside of me
wearing the very same shirt.


And this picture standing before the very same mirror.


capturing a very real baby bump
 with her 22-month-old sister by my side.
My oh my how the time flies.


It's so crazy.


But I like where we are now.


And I'm holding onto these days


of pretend play with baby dolls


for as long as I can.
