MORE BITS AND PIECES!!!

     When we are constantly wishing for Friday, unbeknown to us, we are wishing our lives away.  For me, I say.....stop time....don't go by so fast.  I am getting older, my family members are growing up too fast and getting older too!
     We watched Jesse play t-ball last night and he went 4 for 4!   This little fellow is 5 years old, and he is growing up right before our eyes.  Stop!
     Aryn won 2 medals at the track meet yesterday afternoon.  One for the 4-100 relay and the other for 4-400 relay!  Her long legs are paying off!  She was 'just born yesterday', so how did she get to be 15?  Stop!
     My baby, Murphy, will be 40 years old next week.  In my mind, I am not old enough to have a child that age.  Stop!
     Changing gears - the following picture is our Hamilton County Court House in downtown Chattanooga.....
So springy!!

    It's good to remember to stop and really look at life...grab it quick before it whizzes by.

    Good post... I can certainly agree with you on the time flying by so fast. I don't feel old enough for my youngest baby to be 38! My grand-daughter is 21! .... We have been having some weird weather conditions the past few years. ... The picture of the county court house is beautiful.

    I hope you are having a great day. ♥
