Time is passing… I don’t know what to do. Before I know it it will all be through. Another year of school is done & we remember all the fun! I try to focus on the smiles & happy, when sometimes it’s much easier to be Mama Sappy.
Me & my rhyming is never great. I don’t know why I do it. i love writing about life & sometimes it just feels like a nursery rhyme! Especially when you look at these babies of ours growing up! This is the end of May & all the endings of school. The awards & programs call for dresses & pictures. Sometimes that accidentally turns into some of my very favorite pics of my baby girl! Nothing like a little girl in a gingham dress sittin on a whiskey barrel with daisies in her hand. My Baby Girl!!! Time you are listening to me! I have begged you to slow down but every time I look back at the memories they feel fast & gone! That’s what I get foe getting behind on my postings. Maybe if I stay more current, it won’t hurt so bad. Either way, it feels good to catch up & look back at life. I know one thing…. I am missing my 3rd child right now. I am realizing there hasn’t been much going on foe my Gunner…. At least the pictures don’t display it. Sometimes it’s hard to get that boy if mine to take a picture & that may mean decked out in fishing gear or fish gut hands… but I am gonna make sure to make him look at me more & say… cheese! He didn’t mind saying cheese for that omelet! Ha!
Oh Mothers…. it’s hard to be perfect. To do all the things, take all the pictures, brag on every child, make things fair, remember all the dates, take in the moments & remember them too! Sometimes life is so full from one day to the next I might not remember the day before. Pictures truly remind me of how blessed I am. As I look back I don’t remember the complaining or the moods… all I see are the beautiful faces smiling (maybe forcibly) for the occasion… and it helps me go on. I am grateful for even just a few on Mother’s Day with my children around me & then the special time with my own mother! I remember the day because of the pictures. I know where we sat & even what we talked about because of the pictures! I know after losing my daddy at 29… I am forever grateful for every picture taken of that man. Every picture by himself, with my mom or with me or anyone! I am just happy to see his face over and over. I think I take too many pictures sometimes. Nope… I don’t think so.
Continue on Mother May I… I certainly May & WILL!
