Warning: The following is a serious amount of memories...
If you are not in the mood to view family photos of years gone by,
this is not the place for you. These have all been posted before but in my perusing old blog post,
I discovered although time passes so quickly, the nostalgia and longing to kiss my babies and snuggle them close has not left. It used to be a lot easier is all. My sixteen year old son no longer needs so much affection but will still tolerate a goodnight kiss. The girls love their hugs and kisses as much or more. I wonder if this is the way girls are or if they will soon not need them as much too.
They have grown so much. At one time, they depended on us holding their hand on a hike. I miss that. I also miss seeing their dad like this. There they go, all my favorite people...

Very recent of Bruce and I on an afternoon drive in the sunshine with the top down on the convertible. I aint never had too much fun! We are having the best years of our lives every year it appears. The secret is to love the moment you are in no matter what!
I understand the nostalgia....the kids were watching home videos the other night, oh my, how did my babies grow up so fast?! What will we be like when we're grandmas?!
