Don't Blink...

So often life moves quickly. We blink and we are married, blink again and we are having children. This is suddenly when life moves into overdrive. Our children are tiny for what seems moments. All to well I remember those moonlight feedings, just my little boy and me. After a bottle I would change him to snuggle into the rocker for a few quiet lullabies, but I must of blinked a but long, because this year that tiny baby started High School. The teen years are upon us. We have football games, and parent conferences, there are social events, and yes, even dating. How could my baby be old enough for High School, and wasn't it just yesterday that I myself was babysitting, attending cross country meets and spending Friday nights going to a movie or youth group event?!  Yes, the sands of time are slipping by quickly. But if a photo is worth a thousand words, then maybe a few will also slow things down long enough to be enjoyed. I am snapping these photos as quickly as they happen, and should I blink he will be grown all to soon. But a photograph remembers a feeling, a moment frozen in time. When I blink and he is married and grown I will have the time to sit and look at the wonderful photos being captured of the good times that are happening right now. As the popular song title says, Don't blink... life goes faster than you think
