Watch how they play.
Watch how they speak.
Watch how they grow.
And I learned something. They are growing up fast and right before my eyes. I see them trying to spread their wings and gain a little more independence. I see their minds turning and they are searching for understanding. They are asking questions about life. Their hearts are seeking out truth. I see my oldest son trying to break free from childhood and claim a little manhood.
So for right now I want to say to time and life...slow down. Let me have a little more time. I need more time to give hugs when they hurt. More time for watching them play and imagine. More time for little league and soccer games. More time for sitting in laps while reading books.
Just more time for this sweet time of being young and innocent.
