I have an uncle who put the fast forward feeling into perspective for me. (right before he turned 50) When we are younger, say 10 for example, 1 year is 1/10th of our life. At 50, 1 year is 1 /50th of our life. Looking back at the past year at age 10, it seems like much less time has passed because there are only 10 years to look back on (if you can remember back that far) but at 50, you are seeing things from a few more years and it seems to have gone by in the blink of an eye!
Maybe this year I should make a resolution to blink less and maybe I can make time go slower that way??
Every blink brings the kids doing something else, not always a GOOD something else but something just the same!
As we were driving home from school this morning, the girls were in the backseat of the truck playing 'store' (not 100% sure how that was being accomplished from different sides of the truck and strapped into car seats but whatever). I overheard J asking if she could 'buy' something. A informed her that she could and that there was a military discount.
Anyone wonder what I ask at every store we go to???
Here is a look at my favorite images from 2010!
