Today I am feeling a bit sad....I was going through some boxes of pictures and trying to "organize" them so when I do get the chance to scrapbook it will be a little easier. In doing this I was so amazed at how much things and people have changed in my life. Pictures are such a treasure to me...I think because when you are in life you don't really realize that all of this is truly changing until you can look back at that photo or read in a journal or on a past blog posting. A picture that Addison brought to me stopped me in my tracks today. It was a picture of me (a much younger me) with Mark's grandma Weemhoff at one of my wedding showers. The back of the picture had a sticky not attached that reads: Me and my very special new Grandma W. at wedding shower year 2000. Addi says to me "Momma who dat"? I said to her with tears in my eyes...that's your great grandma!! She is in heaven with Jesus...Addi replies: "Jeeshus". I said yes and she was so excited to meet you...she just did not get the chance yet. Addison does not understand of course but I do. I also came across many pictures of my girls and ohhh how fast it has all gone. I just needed to step back and say..Thank you God for those memories. I just wish it was easier to slow down and enjoy the little moments a little more........ Thanks for listening.

It is unreal how fast time goes by. I remember finally unpacking a few pictures when we got in the house, and seeing the pictures I had framed of Em and all the kids shocked me! They had grown so much. Good thing you and I look exactly the same as the day we met. :)
Love you,

That was a very nice blog posting. It made me tear up. It is amazing how fast time goes and how everything changes. We do need to remember to slow down and take time to enjoy special moments because they are hear and gone so quickly
