Hey friends! Gosh it has been a LONG, LONG, LONG week!! Did I mention its been a long week?!! I'm so glad that's it almost Thursday and I can put this crazy week, behind me!!
I assure you I'm not one to rush time, espicasily now that I have a son. That's defiantly one thing I have learned is that time goes by too fast, and I defiantly don't want to rush a single precious moment with Landon. Days seem like seconds, weeks more like minutes and months like hours! Before you know it an entire year as passed right before you! If It weren't for pictures I probably couldn't tell you what I did the first few days Landon was home, or when he first sat up! It blows my mind.
I know growing up my mom ALWAYS said, enjoy your childhood, live up high school, don't rush growing up. Why in the word didn't I listen. Having Landon has definitely allowed me to see just how valuable time is. I have taken a few step back and re-evaluated my life. My family is #1, they deserve all of my time, Ive cut out things that drained me emotionally and physically, things that didn't allow me to give my 2 guys 100%. I don't want to miss a single milestone, or a precious moment that I will never get back.
Life really does go by way to fast!! This year I want to make a conscious effort to enjoy every moment that God gives me, The Good the BAD and the Ugly, So after writing this I'm realizing that I totally contradicted my first sentence! OOSP!!! I'm going to make sure that I enjoy whats left of this week for sure!
You are so cute! I like realizations that change my mind like that! Haha!
ReplyDeleteI remember my parents telling me that same thing. Of course, I don't think ANY child listens. But every day, I realize it more and more, I miss being in high school...with no responsibilities and endless amounts of time to spend with Mark Dean and my friends. Grr! Being grown-up is not fun.
But I think by blogging all of this, it's more proof we can show our children in the future to appreciate the time they have while they are growing up because they can see, not just hear, what we mean. Does that make any sense? Haha!
I too am trying to make an effort to enjoy every minute.
ReplyDeleteYour little boy is so ADORABLE! Love the picture!
I feel like time is moving at warp speed now that I have kids! I want them to slow down the growing but there are lots of days I wish we could fast forward to bedtime! ;)
ReplyDeleteit does go by wayyyy toooo fast! my baby is in middle school and the hormones are raging.....slow down life:)
ReplyDeleteHeather,
ReplyDeleteIt has been a busy week around here too! You are so wise to try and soak up every minute with that precious little boy. They grow up too fast!
Have a great rest of the week!
Totally agree and I can barely remember when my daughter was little I have to always look at the pictures because it went by fast and I was so sleep deprived ha
ReplyDeleteI'm always looking for a way to pause the time, but it hasn't happened yet, lol. Your little guy is so adorable!! Hope you have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteBlessings

ReplyDeleteYes time does fly past most of the time. This reminds me of something I wanted to post.
