January 2015 ALREADY?


Is there anyone out there who remembers when people were worried about the possiblity of a computer glitch in the year 2000?  Sheesh!  Here we are 15 years later...I read the following recently "...our lives passed away like as it were unto us a dream..."  and there went 15 years.

I have family pictures on the wall of my children when they were little and that's how I still remember and see them sometimes.  When they were little I thought they wouldn't grow up fast enough somedays and here we with everyone almost all grown and on their own.  It happened all faster than I thought it would.  For those of you younger mothers who are trying to get through the day with small beautiful people who are still learning how to eat, go potty, dress themselves, clean up their toys, and play nice...just know, it goes by faster than you think, it really does. Riiiight.  I didn't believe it either.  So spend time saying "yes" as much as possible and let the chores go so you can play with the kids.  Make happy memories for your family and record them.  Family is a big part of my life even though I have fewer of the kids to care for these days. Here are a few of our family pictures of yesteryear.

 Attitude...just comes through even when they are in diapers!
 Getting ready to have Halloween fun!
 Yup, that's me with the big hair back in the day...
Just an example of how one year they're graduating from Pre-school and a few years later, from High School???
One of my favorite family pictures.  I made a necklace with this picture on it.  May 2015 contain wonderful memories with your loved ones.  Sincerely, Julie
