Panic Attack v.1

Kaya's umbilical cord stump fell off while I was changing her diaper today. I just stood there, staring at her big girl belly button while my eyes filled with tears. My little girl is growing up.

I'm not entirely sure how I am going to deal with things like her first day of kindergarten or her first prom if the shedding of a nasty scab has affected me to this extent. Jesus, take the wheel.

How creepy is it if I save the stump for posterity?
