The thing about kids
For the veterans out there, this is nothing new and you might even give me a “no shit Sherlock” response. But as I go through my albums I begin to realize just how fast time goes by. In the early days, with my first child, every day seemed like a year; I had no idea what I was doing (still don’t, really) and it was a tremendous effort to get from dawn to dusk. Now with my second child I’m not seeing the same time warp. I can’t get enough time in the day for either child and I feel like they’re growing up without me, no matter how much time I spend with them. The picture listed reminded me of one moment in time and reminded me again of what many parents told me when I first came to know about the upcoming birth of my daughter: “Take note of every moment because they go by fast and you can’t get them back”. How true. The picture to the right is ~9 months old but it seems like years ago when I look at her — And yet, it seems like yesterday when I snapped it.
