    Sentimental

    6 Comments

    It’s been a sentimental few days. I just feel like life is going SOOO fast and I can’t slow it down. A tiny part of me looks forward to not changing diapers throughout my day but those thoughts are out weighed by far by thoughts of my little ones getting independent and making their own choices and eventually leaving for college and missions and starting their own lives. On date night Friday night Ben and I turned the radio on in the car and it was Brad Paisley singing, “Anything Like Me” – I think thats what kicked off the emotions and thinking about how fast time flies and looking at our kids and where there future is going to lead. The other night I tried to hold Benji – he climbed up in my lap and we rocked for 30 seconds until he got bored but he barely fit – he’s almost to big for that 🙁 I got my hands on some old family pictures over Christmas from when I was a baby which also added to my sentimentality.

    My mom with her first 4 kids - I wonder if she feels like this was just yesterday... now these guys have 13 kids between them.

    This is when I was turning 2 - I've been told that I was quite a bit like Cali, interesting that she's been my hardest child...
