Procrastination and Time

I will write about it tomorrow....





JUST KIDDING!

Where am I at on my Christmas gifts? Nowhere!
I don't know if it's procrastination or just lack of inspiration. I did manage to get all of our Angel Tree gifts wrapped and delivered. :-)
What have I been doing all day? Playing on Pintrest.
No inspiration. Blah.

What else have I been doing?
Organizing photos on the computer! Oh my goodness. I hadn't realized how many hundreds and hundreds of pictures we have taken of Afton in the last 4 months. I have done some serious organizing... and a little bit of crying.

In the days following my Sweet Afton's arrival I was so unbelievably tired I don't remember half of these pictures.

I didn't know what to do with her...

The ones with her and her daddy really cause the tears to well up inside of me.

I can't believe how much she has grown and how fast time has flown.

I just rhymed. ;-)

Having a child really proves how relative time is.
The last 13 months have been the fastest, most exciting, most eventful months of our entire lives!
Especially the last 4!

Everyday is a new adventure better than the last.  I try so hard to cherish everything, but the time still passes all too quickly.

For Afton, 4 months is her whole life, but for us it's just a short 4 months.

It just goes too fast. When I found out I was pregnant I thought to myself, 'wow in 9 months I'm going to have a baby!' and now looking back those 9 months were some of the shortest ones in my life.

No wonder parents bargain so easily with 5 more minutes. To us, they're meaningless minutes, but to a child!
To a child they are an eternity.

Then life goes on and you get older. 5 minutes isn't very long anymore.

You grow up and have things to do and people to see, children to raise and spouses to love. There aren't enough minutes in the day. Those once so precious minutes, are now just small moments in our lives...

...they turn into tiny sweet snippets.
