Runaway Time

It has been too long.  I remembered a picture I took way back of my second guy and his favorite shoes so tonight I went back and read some of my first blog postings.  How has time flown by so fast?  The days that felt like they would never end did and now my first baby hugs me and I realize he is up to my shoulders and not so little anymore.  And our youngest right here, who was turning one just half a second ago, is two and a half going on 5 as he tries to keep up with his big brothers.  It flies...this time that seems to stand still (especially on a rough day).  Someone told me the next thing I'll know my kids will be going off to college and I think tonight is the first time I truly feel what they were talking about.  I love Psalm 90:12 "Teach me to number my days that I may gain a heart of wisdom."  I need wisdom to treasure the days I have with my guys.  This is my prayer today - for wisdom and joy in these days that sometimes feel endless...and years that fly by.
