What a great post. And yes, it does go by so FAST. Seems that just yesterday my youngest wanted to dress as pocahantas for halloween, she was 3 and a half. Now she is 17! Still plays 'dress up' but for being in theater and as a movie extra, lol! Hold on to every moment you can! I am going to have to find me a VCR to watch some of our old home movies, and just maybe, introduce the grandkids to the ol' purple dinosaur! Bernice Monica,

Days come when I will them to grow up, like when they fight over silly things, or act stupid. Then I look back, and I see how far we have all come. And moms come as all types, maybe you are not the mushy, gushy mom that remembers the baby/toddler years with fondness. That's okay. :) I’m right there with you, Shannon.

You want them to grow so they are more independent, and can do more fun things with you, but you still don't want to rush them through childhood. And maybe we were in that Creation crowd together and we didn't know it. Creation and summer - that can come as fast as it wants to. I'm tired of the snow and cold already.

My first born married only two weeks ago. I told her that she was a beautiful bride and that there was only one time that she was more beautiful. That was on the day she was born, for on that day she was mine. Now she belongs to someone else. Yes, they all grow up too quickly. I have two grandchildren (my middle daughter's girls) and they are rushing through life even faster than their mother did. At this season of my life, if "life" did have a pause button, I'd push it and never push play again.
