My children have allowed me to experience every emotion under the sun – laughter, tears, joy, panic, comfort, and sometimes, they teach me things, or remind me of lessons learned. Lauren helped to remind me by the note below, which she wrote in May, that life is short.
The note says:
Dear Matthew,
I know you can’t read, but this note is more to myself than you. But, enjoy your childhood, it’s preciously short.
Yes, Lauren, it is short. I remember when you couldn’t read, either. I love these precious moments! I love being a mother.
Wow! At Lauren's age I was thinking that time was dragging and going to last forever!
Love,
Mother
