A Time for Everything
Ever wonder where the time goes? How it passes so quickly when in certain moment you feel like it's eternity and time has literally stood still? This feeling overtook me the other day, while swimming in the pool with my two oldest girls. My six year old began telling me the names of the four children she was going to have. Did I mention she is six?! My firstborn who it seems like yesterday was watching Tangled for the fifteen millionth time, singing the songs word for word, and wishing her short curly hair would become long and luxurious like Rapunzel's.
Time. It waits for no one and sometimes it can seem like it stealing your babies away from you. I know I certainly feel that way. In a few months I will have a seven year old, a four year old, and a one year old. The days are long but the years are certainly short.
It makes me want to breathe in the moment each and everyday. If you haven't already figured it out, I am a list person and you know I have a daily to-do list. However, it sometimes takes priority over everything else in my life and I forget to just live life rather than trying to check off the next thing on my list. But lately, my heart has been telling me to slow down. I'm not sure it's possible, because I've trained myself that sitting still means I'm being stagnant and not accomplishing what needs to be accomplished.
It's a daily challenge for me, but it's a goal of mine to let go of the rush and sit back and just enjoy the little moments in life that make me smile. I hope you will too!
