TIME

Do you ever just sit back and think…..where did the time go? This past week looking at pictures of my kids and family that’s the first word that came to my mind. I often wonder as a mom if I am doing the right things and making the right choices ( I think those are normal thoughts) and I think I am doing a good job. Of course we all make mistakes and we are not perfect. But I think back to when my girls were just so little, I am going to say when the girls were about 1 and 2 years old. I remember thinking geeze, the diapers and the wipes and the crying and ugh…….. and now, there is none of that. Makes me a little sad to be real honest. I want those days back so that I can cherish them more, take them in more and take more pictures and just play more. Dustin and I had decided when Savee was born we were not having anymore kids. The week Lanie started kinder is the week I found out I was pregnant with Nowlin. I was so scared and excited, here I was with 2 kids one in school and the other going into school in a year, and I’m pregnant. I tell Dustin and he was so excited (thank goodness because I was thrilled to have another little one) he literally called everyone in his phone that day hahahahaha. I remember telling Dustin that with this pregnancy and this child I was going to embrace and have more patience. God defiantly knew what he was doing at that moment in time when I made that promise to myself. I told Dustin the day I had him “I don’t care if he cries all night I’m going to love every second of it” and let me tell you all………I sure did. Embrace every second you have with your babies. I sound like they are grown and out of the house. Well…..they are not. They are 13, 12, and 6 so they still have a little bit of time at home, I can’t imagine what I will be like when they leave. #time #slowdown #juststaylittle #babies #pictures #thinkingback #love
