Mother’s Day was delightful yesterday! Spending time with my family usually is. 🙂
Semisweet posted these photos on her facebook page yesterday and I thought I’d share them here. Wow, was I young!
And now both of these girls have grown into such beautiful young women! I can’t believe they will both be gone to college come fall. It reminds me how fleeting time really is and makes me take stock of what we are doing, what needs to change, and also what needs to remain the same.

“Wow! Was I young”?! You look exactly the same, it’s Mr. F-R who was young!!!

I think Mr FR looks a little overwhelmed and under slept! So true for those ages 🙂 And wow! I see Hershey in Bon Bon’s face up there. I am always amazed at how genetics play through.

Darling. Now that i have a 13 year old, I should recognize that one day I’ll have kids in college and kids off on missions and kids MARRYING!!! But it still doesn’t seem possible. The silly thing is, I am quite sure that it will seem like the wink of an eye before I am saying, “Hey, I was just saying it seemed impossible that I could ever be at this point”. Life is crazy.

Oh these are sweet pictures. How fleeting life really is. And to Nancy, yes, it happens in a blink-my baby girl just graduated from college-YIKES! Reminds me of the Hymn, “Improve the Shining Moments” which have the words, “Improve the shining moments, don’t let them pass you by. Word while the sun is radiant, work for the night draws nigh.” Life is work, but the more you invest in it,especially your family, brings phenomenal returns.
