Where has the year gone?



Drew is wrapping up his year this week in school... My little guy will be a first grader at the end of the week. Where has the time gone? It's such a cliche, but time does fly with the boys.

Bo did not get strep, but Jack did. We also discovered he has abnormally large tonsils and we are being referred to an ENT to check them out. He has bounced back well...

As I was saying about Drew - he can read and his handwriting is great. The older boys cleaned their rooms last night. All in all, I can't believe how big they are getting. Bo will be one in less than a month. No more formula and we can turn his carseat around. I always hear moms say how time flies and think that it really doesn't. Those nights when your baby is up four times can last eternity. The afternoons of nonstop complaining can go on forever. But looking over the year in reflection, it did move quite quickly.

Take some time today to enjoy this day. Be grateful for your spouse, your parents, your kids. Just be grateful they are in your life. Time does fly.

SO TRUE!!! I look back at Bella and wonder where the past three years have gone!! And then Brooklyn will be 2! It is very cliche - but so true - they grow up so quickly!!!

I don't care what you girls say, when you are 39 weeks pregnant time does NOT fly!

Been there, done that - three times! I would have to agree it does move slowly. The worst was Hurricane Ivan knocking out our power in the summer when I was 39 weeks pregnant with Jack. We lost power and AIR for 3 days. ARGH! John has never wished for electricity more! We had Jack the day after the power came on!

Let this Mi-Mi, Grammy, Mother, school teacher tell you how time flies! Do you believe I just completed my 36th year of school teaching? (if you count that one year of subbing...hey that was the hardest)! I can't believe I'm going to have my 7th grandchild in December, that DJ is 7 1/2, and that Jenny is going to be 36 this month. And Liesa don't you have a birthday tomorrow? The 9th of June!
Tinme does fly and through it all I remain 39! LOL. You probably won't even read this, since this post was posted on May 28th.
