...I can't believe how time fly's!! I realize that's a bit cliche and we hear it often, but man...just two short years ago I was holding a tiny little baby and crying at how overwhelmed I was to have the honor and responsibility of caring for something so precious.
We take time for granted way too often and it is such a gift. Most of us don't make time for the stuff that lasts, the stuff that matters. Everyone is always sooOOoo busy. The truth is there will ALWAYS be something that needs to get done, another dish to wash, or two more hours of overtime we could squeeze in. But time passes and you CAN'T get it back. My father-in-law always says "you make time to do the things you really want to do"....and he's right! If I really want to watch the new episode of the Office, then I'm going to make a point of watching it. If I really want to check out the sale at Old Navy then I'm going to try and find a way to squeeze it in while I'm running errands.
I realize having said that, sometimes I need to re-prioritize day.
I have a TON of work I should be doing on the computer. I have a new web-site and new (way improved) blog that I have been trying to work on, as well as family photos I've been meaning to process and organize. But those things are not more important than my son. So I work on client's photos and blog when I can and choose to laugh with my son while rolling around on the floor in a tickle fight instead...I can always work on that other stuff later, but tickling, laughing, and cuddling Graydon is something that in a few more short years from now I won't be able to do...mostly because it won't be cool to snuggle with your mom when your 10 or 12.
My point is that we could all stand to take some time to do the things that are important to us...reading more, journaling, catching up with old friends, turning the TV off and talking with your spouse, exercising, or tickling your two year old before more birthdays pass and your wondering again, where did the time go?
We spent Graydon's birthday weekend in Myrtle Beach with my family...it was nice to get away. I hope you enjoy these pictures from the beach and of him enjoying his strawberry cake. AFTER you take a look at them :) stop surfing the net, log off facebook, close down your e-mail, turn your computer off and go take the time to do something that matters!
This was the view from our balcony...not bad eh?
Jeremy took this one of me in "action"!
My sister and her friend goofing around.
Thanks to Venessa (my other sister...the one with the baby just above) for taking this picture of my beautiful family...I am so blessed! Have a great Wednesday!
