How quickly time flies when you are so busy! Work, play, sleep, visiting, hiking, swimming, playing nursemaid, building, cleaning, repairing, chatting, driving, so much to do, so little time.
Here it is the middle of August, the nights are getting shorter, although not as cool as I'd like them to be. All the fun ideas for the summer, camping, hiking, playing didn't happen, somehow time passed in a blur without those thoughts coming to fruition.
I think in terms of years now, not weeks or months. Life seems to be spinning faster and faster. Children are growing older, getting taller, much smarter and I'm loving them more each day. I miss the babies I get to see oh, so infrequently. I miss the smiles, the new accomplishments, the cute phrases that come from their innocent mouths. I miss their tiny chubby legs and puggy fingers, and inquisitive bright eyes.
Getting older is not it's all cracked up to be.......all the wishes in the world can't slow down the aging process, much to our dismay. I savor every day and thank the power that is, for all my blessings. I'm so very lucky! Healthy, loving family, great friends and incredible jobs that seem to fall in my lap. I believe everything happens for a reason and you must take advantage of every opportunity, no matter how strange, or far fetched. Life is here to be lived to the fullest, it's such a short ride!
