Holding on to little moments


Some day my kids will grow up and I will yearn for this time. The time of having a nine year old discovering her talents, an eight year old asking all sorts of inquiring questions I can't answer.  The time of a five year old so full of energy he literally cannot hold still, or a three year old who wants to have dance parties in her layers of dress up clothes.  These time are trying for a mother.  But, they are so so wonderful too.  Just when I am near tears of frustration, I have moments like this when I look at these kids and think, "Miranda, you are going to miss this so much."
