Childhood is fleeting...

I a reading a book called, "Beautiful Girlhood" right now and have been reminded and the unique, short time this "childhood" is. So I want to remember to gaze at Kristyn's especially cute grin.
I want to take notice of Jocelyn as she sings her made up songs and shows me yet another new gymnastics trick.
When Taylor has something to say, I want to really listen and when he asks to spend time "just you and me" I am going to do it. What a priviledge to have these children.
Someday soon they will be too big for lollipops and piggy rides. Soon I will be tempted to often be looking back. But as girlhood and boyhood disappear, I pray that I will be glad for the time and energy I gave. Knowing I gave it my best and leaving the rest to my Heavenly Father. No regrets just sweet, giggly, cuddly memories.
