You blink.......

............ and your babies are all grown up. Look at that little guy. Why I was bending down to put my arm around him. What a little sweetie. He's not all grown up now, no, he has a ways to go yet, but tonight, that fifteen-year-old teenager picked me up and carried me across the room, just because he could, I guess. Yeesh, where did the time go? It hasn't been long since my little man was coming up and measuring to see if he was as tall as me yet. And of course, before that, he was this little guy, so tiny. He's always been such a sweet, considerate little boy, and he is still a sweet young man. The other night, I put some chicken on to cook, and he got so excited, he ran to the convenience store and bought drinks, his treat! Poor thing, I guess I should cook more..... I guess I'd better stop and enjoy more, because the past fifteen years has gone so quickly, it won't be a breath and he'll be bringing some pretty little girl home, telling me they're getting married. Oh, my goodness, time flies as you're getting old.................

I agree. Before you know it they are grown up and gone and you look back and wonder what happened. Where did the time go?

What a cute picture of the two of you.

This is such a great picture, I don't remember seeing it before. How fun to look back on these sweet photos. We think we'll never forget any minute from when they were young, but you might as well try to hold a river in your hand, holding onto those memories.
