What is the right answer? How does a mother capture and preserve the sweet joys that small children create on a daily basis without the ability to freeze time? The hard reality of life is that I know these precious days will go by in a hurry - and when you add "mommy brain" to the equation (which is the result of three pregnancies in a three year timeframe) - the time will fly by even quicker. So short of inventing time travel, how can I allow myself the opportunity to return to our life, just as it is now, to once again enjoy the sweet giggle of our babies? Well, I don't know the answer and this is the internal conflict I struggle with everyday.
I thank God for blessing Dan and I with so many wonderful things; namely, our three beautiful children. I know that they are God's children and I have been granted the amazing privilage of motherhood to our three boys, and wow - what a privilage it is. I don't want time to go by too quickly, but unfortunately, time doesn't stop for me. So this is the reason I have created my blog. It is a nice spot for me to journal my thoughts for my children with the hope that one day when I am an old lady, I'll have the ability to pull out these memories and immediately be transported back to a time when my heart was overflowing with love, happiness, pride and joy and enjoy each of the life stages of my children again and again.
