Do we really take the time to do that? time flys faster than we ever imagine and those little ones that come to us, grow up and are gone and we are left alone again. and if they live far away, the little ones that bring us so much joy are also far from us and we cannot be with them. we don't have the priviledge of watching them grow up and sharing with them, like we could if we lived close, and the ones that live close are too busy being independant to spend much time with Dad and Mom. We are doing our own thing, they say, So we wait for them to marry so we can again have little ones about to watch over and care for. and we look at those little grandchildren and think "it was just a few days ago when their parent, our child, was born and was this small, and now they are the parent going thru the sleepless nites and the discipline struggles and the happy smiles and the funny words full of hugs and kisses. And we wonder when did I grow old and my children grow up and leave me. And we attend school programs again but now it is for grandchildren, not our own. and when nite time comes they leave and go to their own home and ours is quiet and still and empty. and life moves on steady, consistantly, yet feeling like it is going faster and faster.
