Sometimes looking at old pictures makes me sad.

It makes me realize that if you don’t stop and take the time to ENJOY life EVERYDAY that, before you know it, you’ll be so far down the road, looking back and wishing you had taken in more sights along the way.

Here is a picture from 4 years ago.

Elliott’s first Christmas. I remember this day vividly ~ like it was just last week.

But it was FOUR years ago! The days and weeks go by so fast.

She is now a big sister and a big girl…

Sometimes I wish I could just slow it down a bit, but all I can do is take it one day at a time.

Some days go fast and some go s…l…o…w, but they are all special and lead up to the next milestone.

Speaking of milestones, we are heading to Vegas this weekend to celebrate Jay’s 40th birthday.

Happy Birthday, Babe!

Here’s to the next 40 years…

Before we know it, we’ll be celebrating our children’s 40th birthdays and we’ll look back to this weekend in Vegas and it will seem just like yesterday!

Enjoy all the “THENS” in your life because before you know it, they will be “NOWS”.
