Two girls. Two cats. And one husband...: Time isn't endless...BUT...

How many times do we all say "where has the time gone??" And then we stop and realize it's just past us by and the year is almost over with. As I sit and write this, I think about that...It's October 11, 2011 and I literally am shocked that Halloween is in two plus weeks and then the crazy holiday season begins. Again. Tonight I sat and watched Hannah play with her Leapfrog...her Leapfrog! She was learning how to read simple words and pronunciation of them...really?!? It seems like just yesterday she was where Caroline is and learning how to walk (or run as seems to be the case...). And Caroline...my Sweet little Caroline. My baby. She is walking around everything. Saying simple words and loves baby dolls. Again, I think it seems like just yesterday she was born...but that first year has come and gone. This weekend also marked a milestone: 15 years ago I met Tim at our now hometown's annual festival in 1996. As I sat and watched the parade with my girls I thought back to that same day 15 years ago where I met a lanky engineering student with a wonderful smile and funny personality. And a cute tush too =) There was something about him that I liked and felt natural about it. And fast forward again and we've been married almost 8 years and have two daughters. All of it has made me realize that time isn't endless and it won't standstill no matter how hard we try. BUT life is what we make of it and those moments we have are the memories we take with us and reminisce about as time goes by. We remember through stories, through pictures and by timing going by....
