Today is a good day. Do you ever have that feeling that things are just going right, and that your kids are in a good place? Today is that day for me. It makes me very happy, mixed with a touch of sadness. My son is 21, almost 22, and he is becoming a fine young man. He has grown a lot this year, and learned some valuable lessons. It's a good thing! If he had gone through what he went through this year without learning the lessons, that would not be good :) I am reminded today of all of his funny little things he said as he was growing up. He's always been such a clown. A little stubborn and moody, but his attitude always came around to where he needed to be, and the sweet little boy I raised comes back to me!
My daughter is a senior in high school, and deep into the throws of planning her college life and beyond. She's making lists of everything she wants in her dorm. Today she texted me a picture of the silverware she wants. I'm beginning to think that she thinks she's getting 'new' everything. Wrong :) I'll cross that bridge later :)
I saw this post on Pinterest, and I immediately fell in love with it. I'm going to run over to the store later today and get these mini frames, and make this. I want to capture the photos of the kids throughout the years, and hang as a reminder of the fun that we've had, and the great kids we have raised. I know the future chapters in my life will be just as good as the past ones, but my mamma nostalgia is kicking in and I want to hold on to what I have now. It seems like time is accelerating, and I don't want to miss one minute! Don't blink :)
