Childhood memories


Alyssa has been watching old videos and we watched the video of  this party tonight.  I am so thankful for the gift of photo and video.  It was so nice to take a look back in time and hear my children's younger voices...see them as younger versions of themselves.  It preserves so many details that the brain alone can not.

I am proud of who my kids have grown to be, and I remember how hectic and exhausting those days were....when I was the mom of little ones.  Yet, there is a part of me that yearns to go back in time and hold my babies in my arms one more time.
