LIVE IN THE MOMENTS YOU'LL NEVER FORGET

 Let me capture them for you.

It's just a normal Monday.  You've packed another lunch, or handed out another snack!  The house is a mess with toys and dishes and even though it might only be 9:30 in the morning, you are already exhausted! Motherhood isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s the best job and it’s the toughest job! We’ve all heard that saying: the days are long but the years are fast! Anyone who is a mother lives and breaths this statement. It’s the rhythm of our beating heart! That lunch you packed.. that was for the tween or teenager you may have just sent off to school. The snack, that was probably for the kindergartener or the toddler who, gosh wasn’t that one just a baby a month ago?
Where does the time go?
But then it hits you. These days are so long. You look around and the house and scan the room but all of a sudden your eye catches a photo. That ONE photo you framed so long ago:  you remember. Those babies... the chubby cheeks.  That little boy with the two front teeth missing making THAT face!  OHH that silly face that you hated so much but now makes you laugh! You giggle a little because you can feel it.  You can feel the laughter and the joy.  Immediately you are right back there to the tiny toes and the games we played because it's there, captured forever.  That's why you work with me.  Because that boy with the teeth missing, he's a young man now in his teens!  And the toys spread around the room, they are from that chubby cheeked baby who is now at school.  But there they are, in that beautiful moment frozen!  That moment where you can remember those details, that precious time always!
