Time...a funny thing.

I am reminded this morning how quickly time goes. It seems not long ago that my little darlings were just viewing the world and now they are exploring it at a run. It is sometimes too easy to get caught in the moments of stress (not napping well, crying spells, dinner boiling over, dog needing a walk, ect...) and forget to take time to enjoy the goodness. Last night as I held the girls for their 2 am feeding I realized that very soon moments like those will be only a memory. How can I rush through, hoping to get more sleep, when an angel sleeps in my arms? No picture can be taken that will truely show the sweet serenity in their faces as they know they are loved and safe. It is those times I want to slow down. Often our world dwells on the negative but I can honestly say that with the birth of my girls my attitude changed. Life is about the smiles and slowing down to enjoy each phase...even the one where they learn to use their lungs a little.
