Nostalgia

I've been doing a lot of reminiscing lately.  I find myself following the links on the bottom of my blog posts to read old posts that I've written about the kiddos.  The things they said.  The things they did.  Those little faces.

I've also got an app on my phone called Time Hop.  Each day you can 'time travel' back however many years (from one up till maybe seven, for me) and look at your status from your newsfeed, pictures you posted, and Instagram updates.

What it makes me realize is how quickly my children's lives are passing by.  It's unbelievable.  I remember living in those moments and now it seems like they're so far gone.  And, it seems like each year zooms by faster than the one before.

Buddy turns 12 on Thursday.  I feel like I have been asking this a lot lately, but seriously, where did the the time go?

Me

I'm turning 40 on Thursday.  I can only imagine how my mother feels about that.
