Old photos for fun


The house is quiet.
EVERYONE is in school.
I should be doing choirs - but instead I am enjoying the peace and quiet and reflecting on motherhood.
Going back through these photos is bringing me so much JOY.
Hard to believe the house is quiet and I am alone and have FREEDOM right now.
I never thought that would ever exist back in these days.
Three kids under the age of three took everything I had.
And on days that seemed overwhelming, exhausting and emotional draining - in some weird way - I miss those days terribly.
Never imagined having those thoughts back then.
Everyone told me in some fashion to slow down and enjoy them as they wont be little forever.
I didn't believe that advice.
To me - this old season of motherhood seemed like it was going to last forever.
And here I am - in a quiet house, all alone - and I am reminded that is DOESN'T last forever.
Life's seasons are constantly changing.
And even though I am feeling nostalgic looking at these old photos...
We are loving the current season of life.
Motherhood is still challenging and demanding - but I am selfishly enjoying some new found freedoms.
But, I just looked at the clock.  Time to pick up number 2 and 3 from school 
and we are headed to the Children's Museum.
Loving this new age/new season. 
It brings about new adventures and fun.
But it is always sweet to be reminded of old times by looking back at these old photos.
Enjoy...
These sweet faces MELT ME!
