Time Flies

One year ago today, we welcomed our sweet boy into this world. So tiny, so handsome, so precious. A year later, I look at this photo and can't help to wonder where the time has gone. This is a moment frozen in time. Yet when I study it, I am still there. Still present in the room- the sights, the sounds, the smells, the joy.

Everyone tells you how fast the time goes by. But like most things you don't really comprehend what that means until you are there yourself. Today, I am there. Today I cannot believe its already been a year. That tiny baby boy now a growing little boy. That still body wrapped tightly now fighting getting dressed. That serious face now always smiling. 

In so many ways, everything about him has changed. And in so many others, nothing has. His world is still full of wonder and discovery; a blank slate full of possibilities. Our promise to him when he was born is the wish we make again today on his birthday- to surround him with love, positive energy and laughter.  My promise to myself: live in the moment, cherish the seconds, and never forget time flies.
