such sweet sorrow


what's that line from "romeo & juliet" - "parting is such sweet sorrow..." that's exactly how i feel about kalei's old clothes. twice a year a local church hosts a consignment sale and this will be the second one i've participated in as a seller. we know we're finished having children and there's no need to hold onto the clothes kalei has outgrown, but it's still kinda hard to part with some of the more adorable ones. i picked them out just for her! she looked so incredibly cute in them! of course, she'd look cute in a paper bag, but these clothes remind me of when she was still my baby. i know it's time to move on and look ahead, but there are a few items that i simply need to hold onto - i can't handle too much sweet sorrow at once. :)

isn't is so hard to accept that they'll never be your baby any more? it's so sad letting them grow up sometimes! a lot of fun, happy things too but every once in a while it just hits me.
