Catching up

The kids are growing so fast. My camera can't keep up. I try to take things day by day but my camera pulls me back and let's me look at yesterday. Well, it feels like yesterday but the pictures are dated well past.

My days are long but it goes by so fast. There's so much to do in a day that sometimes I don't relax with my kids and just enjoy the time with them. I think they need to teach me how to be a kid again. I don't want to miss they're childhood. But it's going by like a click on a camera.

Lincolns 9th birthday

It was a small birthday party for Lincoln but he enjoyed himself. We took him to Dave and Busters for lunch and he pretty much spent all his money on one game. He even asked the person he was playing with to slide his card on his side. And that person did!! Thanks. He got all lot of talking too though. Lincoln picked a sushi bar to eat dinner but we ended up going without him. He rather stick with his friends than come home so we left. It was a very emotional day, good and not so good. He is a "tween" now so I need to understand that he will test more boundaries. It's hard for me to let him make decisions that I know are not so well thought out. I am here to guide him. That thought keeps on going through my mind. Sigh. Happy Birthday my tweener son. Love you.

I'll try this again

How time flies... It's been too long but surely it has been a very satisfying journey. We moved, a while ago, but still in the settling stages on the house. I think I moved the furniture downstairs 5 times and still not quite homey. Upstairs is quite cozy though. No pictures. Just an update. Maybe soon if I keep this up. My children. Sigh. A very long sighhhhhh. Love em. I am doing this blog to hopefully show them how unique they are. Their journeys and accomplishments are meant to be recapped in detailed journals. As years go by, I hope this blog will take them back as it was yesterday and also see how much they have touched my life with their love and laughter, happy and not so happy times. As in every parent, my love for them will never dissipate, but grow from both our experiences through journey. Liya, my 2 year old, is on my lap trying to get comfortable as she tries to wake up from a very long nap. Her arms around my shoulders comforts me as I try to type. She is fighting a cold so she persists to be nursed quite often. Lincoln went to soccer practice with dad and Alexa. Its a quiet house right now. I should've went with them.
