(Almost) Wordless Wednesday: (Almost) 2!

September 19, 2012

“You will never have this day with your children again.
 
 
Tomorrow, they’ll be a little older than they were today.
 
 
This day is a gift.
 
 
Breathe and notice.
 
 
Smell and touch them;
 
 
Study their faces and little feet and pay attention.
 
 
Relish the charms of the present.
 
 
Enjoy today, Mama. It will be over before you know it.”
 
 
-Jen Hatmaker
 
Thank you so much again to Erin for taking these pictures. You are such a wonderful friend and I am so blessed to have you in my life!
