When Did It Happen?

Christmas Morning

While looking through my newly uploaded pics I was struck still once again.  How did they all get to be so big?  A boy with an MP3 player and a never-to-be-removed baseball cap?  A princess I hardly recognize except for the required tiara in her hands.  And a baby – who’s not a baby any longer.  TheMiddlest is just as shockingly old, just not seen here.  When?  How?  I promise I haven’t blinked once.  And yet..

(No, Santa didn’t deliver on a new camera – turns out Santa gets tax returns – I expect something grand come March, but he did bring a shiny new external hard drive – and isn’t that what everybody dreams of anyway?)
