Time goes by so fast

I know that my mother wonders where the time has gone when she looks at me...just like me when I look at Derek.  I truly wonder where the last 17 years have gone.

This month's Ensign, President Monson said, “Time passes quickly. Many parents say that it seems like yesterday that their children were born. Now those children are grown, perhaps with children of their own. ‘Where did the years go?’ they ask. We cannot call back time that is past, we cannot stop time that now is, and we cannot experience the future in our present state. Time is a gift, a treasure not to be put aside for the future but to be used wisely in the present.”

The senior pictures are done

Derek's senior pictures arrived yesterday.  As Derek and I were looking at them, I started to cry.  Ok...I am losing it a little.  In a few of them, he looked really funny and in others, he looked like the man I hope he is becoming.

Now the job of picking out ones for the family.  I wonder if it is ok to carry around a book of 200 pictures to show people?
