Our Sunday school class just finished up a great book by Dr. James Dobson. It ended perfectly - by reminding us how quickly our children grow up! I know you are all well aware of how quickly the time goes by. I'm sure that just yesterday you brought your now graduating son or daughter home from the hospital. And you're wondering where has the time gone?!
Well, if you're like us, you enjoyed every minute of being a parent and of their lives, even the challenging times. However, you cannot slow down time, you just have to be part of it everyday.
Good or bad.
God brought you to this moment and He will get you through it, again good or bad!
This is Del and I the Spring of 2009, the beginning of our journey with our first son!
This is Del now, at Abe's birthday party, about 2 weeks ago!
Me, Del, Ry and Abe at the hospital, the evening Abe was born!
This is Abe as of Friday, I'm sure he's even grown since then!
I honestly can say that we've enjoyed every minute with our boys and we learn from them just like they learn from us! We believe very strongly that when we teach our children right from wrong, and discipline them, God is doing the same to us. It's our decision as adults, just like our children have a choice, to learn from it and choose more wise the next time. Children learn by example and they watch their parents, Grandparents, aunts and uncles, etc closely!
All I'm trying to say is, enjoy this moment for you will not get another moment like it!
