Moments in Time

 


Mostly they won't remember but you--mom or dad--will cherish these days. They go by so fast and all you have is a wisp of a smile, a laugh, a grubby hand in yours. Wide eyes, best days...

♥️♥️♥️

Moments

 you only get one first birthday,

1 first day of school,

18 summers,

if you’re lucky, 10 times to play Santa,

20 times [give or take] to be the tooth fairy,

1 first date,

1 maybe 2 prom nites,

1 High school Graduation,

1 chance to teach your baby to be a good and kind person.

 ... the days are long but the years are short


Happy Mother's Day

    I miss my Mom a lot--8 yrs on June 5th she left us...
    Life is SO short--you turn around and you find yourself in your 80's...but grateful for all the times I had with my Mom--she was a lot of fun...
    Hugs to you, good friend--enjoy your Mother's Day with baby Mo
