Crawling


It’s a funny thing, time and how it passes.  I’ve mentioned this several times here, but it goes by in the blink of an eye.
For those that know my affinity to country music, a song comes to mind; “Don’t Blink” by Kenny Chesney.

In the song there is an old man who shares the secret to life, “Don’t blink, just like that your 6 years old and you take a nap, then you wake up and your 25 then your high school sweetheart becomes your wife, don’t blink you just might miss your babies growing like mine did”.

It sounds cliché, but it is all very accurate.  It goes faster than you think.

As it goes by so fast it also becomes harder to honor those tiny moments that hold the treasures of life.

Several weeks ago we were treated to one of those tiny moments, our youngest son started crawling.
With his new found mobility he has made his first movements towards independence. 
He is all over the place with a curiosity that is so pure that it is hard not to marvel at.
He is on his way and a new chapter is developing, we are blessed to witness such a wonderful time.
