I may be the only mom who feels this way but I have had a little bit of a hard time with all my kids birthdays this year. People tell you when they are born, " cherish every moment cause time flies." You can't fathom this statement for the first year. You are so busy learning them, loving them and navigating life as 3 instead of 2. But now that 6 years, 2 siblings, 2 moves and countless other life altering events have occurred I sit here and say, " where has the time gone?!"
God has quickly been reminding me that the time has gone by in the moments I've held him when he is upset, sick or tired. They have gone by in the tee-ball games and soccer matches he has played. The first days of his life where we carefully fed our 5lb 2oz miracle. Time has passed by watching him become a protective, caring older brother. 6 years hasn't come and gone they have passed as they should and we have made memories and have learned A LOT! Even though my heart is sad that life has changed so quickly I will choose today to rejoice in this precious gift I get the privileged of living every day...motherhood.
