10 Months

Gosh, the time sure does fly. I'm sitting here in our new and improved home office, which has now become my favorite room in the house, and I'm just amazed to think that I actually have a ten-month old son. 10 Months Old! He's actually less than 2 months away from turning 1. I really can't believe it. And that means that I'm less than 2 months away from turning 29. I can't believe that either. When I was a kid, a year used to seem like an eternity.......I had to wait so long to celebrate my next birthday and summer vacations always seemed so far off. But somewhere along the journey of life, that all changed. At some point, my concept of time became more real... or... maybe I simply adjusted to living in a "fast-food" world that is always rushed and always in a hurry. This has been the fastest year of my life. Sometimes I wish that a year still seemed like an eternity... simply because I don't want to miss anything. I don't want to miss a single moment of this life God has given me. I don't want to miss a moment with my amazing husband. I don't want to miss a moment of my son's life.... family... friends... beautiful days... I don't want to miss any of it! So I'm trying to be STILL more. To breath deeply and take everything in. Like right now, just soaking in the fact that I'm a mom of a 10-month old boy. I love it. So I will cherish today... right now... and I will look forward to the future, knowing that there will be so many more incredible moments and so many more ways to grow and to experience life.
