Growing Up

I hate that my kids have to grow up. Why can't they stay little and innocent forever?! Hailey has always called birds quack quacks. Well things have changed. The other day while taking a bath she handed me a toy bird and said this a chicken? No Hailey, its a quack quack! She cant know the proper names of birds! They must always be quack quacks, for if they have a real name it must mean that she is getting older.
Another thing that she has alway said was that her name is Hay Hay. Even all of the kids in nursery call her that. Now all day she says Hailey. As if she is proud that she can now pronounce her name! Its great that she can but it also means that my little Hay Hay is growing up.
