The booster....and no, not the vaccine kind.

Yesterday was a very momentous day for me as a mama. My triplets have officially moved on to bigger and better things: the booster seat. I knew this day was approaching when the top slot in the five point harness started being at the shoulder line. I hoped to extend the inevitable date, but my husband announced to me yesterday that it was indeed time to move on from the carseat.

It's amazing how quickly time flies. It seems almost yesterday that we were stressing and agonizing over whether or not our sweet triplets could stay breathing, stay safely secured, and stay installed in those infant carriers. Our nurses and doctor's were talking to us about the possibility of having to purchase horizontal carseats in order to send our babies home from the NICU. Those conversations, those moments seem like they were merely minutes ago. Now here, before me, are three almost four year olds. They truly have moved on from being a picture on a sonogram, into talking, deciding, singing, dancing, playing, living beautiful children.

I am blessed. I am also a bit emotional over this moment. Allow me to sit and remember...we really have come so far! :)
