Time Flies...

Time flies...how do kids grow up so fast???

JACK IS 9!!!
How did he ever get to be 9 years old? I remember bringing him home from the hospital in San Diego (he is a proud native San Diegan). I remember pushing him in the stroller along Mission Bay. I remember Michael driving him around the streets of Pacific Beach at 2 in the morning to get him to fall asleep (before I learned how to be a "sleep nazi").

And then there is Luke- he can READ! How did he learn to read? I just went to his first school conference..how did we get here? He is adding and subtracting and writing word families on lined paper...how did we get from Dora the Explorer to reading?

And, of course, there is Drew...new words come out of her mouth every day. She can now say "Lynney"...(Ninny) for her Aunt Lynney and "Night Dad"...she is learning so much. She also has her own very strong opinions...now how did she get that kind of personality, hmmm, not sure...:)

Kids..they grow up too fast...here's to slowing down and enjoying it...
