Today is my gorgeous baby's birthday! He's 15 today! I can hardly believe he came to us 15 years ago! My husband reminds me that it means he will only be with us for 3 1/2 more years until he leaves us for college. That is exactly what happened to us this past fall with our firstborn. I can remember all three of my children's births. I can remember the whole day like God played it slow motion. Just like when I was 12 and hit by a car on my bicycle. I think all those really important, profound moments in our lives are like that, purposefully. Like God intended them that way so we could remember every detail because our lives where about to experience something that was going to completely change our lives.
We celebrate life today. I really never understood the concept that time really would move so fast. And it really is true that the older we get, the faster it seems to go. I think of my tiny little Mom in the hospital, fighting with every cell in her body to hang on to her life. Life really is so precious. I just wish it could slow down...........
