We celebrate the ๐ง๐ช๐ณ๐ด๐ต๐ด.
The first smile. First step. First word. First day of school.
We take photos, mark the dates, and tell everyone whoโll listen.
ย
But the ๐ญ๐ข๐ด๐ต๐ด?
We rarely notice them when they happen.
The last time you rocked them to sleep.
The last time they needed help getting dressed.
The last time they reached for your hand to cross the road.
ย
Those moments didnโt feel special at the time. They felt ordinary.
And thatโs what makes them so tender when we look back.
These bittersweet โlastsโ are signs your child is growing, and that youโre growing right alongside them, learning to let go while still holding close.
ย
So yes, celebrate the big firsts.
But if you can, pause for the everyday moments too.
Some of them are lasts in disguise โ and they matter more than we realise. ๐
