All packed up

This evening I put all of my maternity clothes in a plastic bin in the garage so I have room in my closet to bring out the spring clothes that I'm going to need soon. I have to admit, it was a little sad to put them away, much as I started hating them toward the end. It's almost like it's closing the book on a significant portion of my life, and one that I don't know when or if it'll be opened again. At the same time, if I don't ever again see another low-cut, empire-waisted shirt that ties in the back, then it won't be a tragedy.
