K & N

 I convinced these two to go in front of my camera for a minutes, so

they dolled themselves up, hair and everything. I was looking forward
to start shooting, however it didn't last for long.

When their next-door cousin came knocking on the door asking them to 

come play with her, guess who was the more exciting option. Not me.

Blessings

There are times that I've wished the day would fly by. And then there

are times like today when I wish I could pause my children right where

they are, right at this moment. It feels like such a short time ago

that I held our oldest for the first time, and now in just a blink of an eye later

my youngest is beginning to write her letters. How did this happen so fast?

I pray that on those days I am wishing for bedtime to come soon, I will

take a step back and be thankful for the beautiful gifts God has given me.

I pray that I will take the time to laugh with them, to play with them, to make memories

with them. And when they spill their milk, smear the toothpaste

all over the bathroom and in general wreak havoc all over my house I 

need to remember to look at the bigger picture and not live in just those moments.

Children are a blessing from God, and while it may not ever be possible for me to treasure

every single waking moment, watching them grow is a beautiful thing.
