wow…I have been pretty regular with the blog for quite a while, but man have I let it slip lately.   Something has to give right?  Stella wants a princess tea party…everyday.  That can’t give.  Luke wants to ride his bike until the sun goes down.  That can’t give.  I really like Danny to come home to a well kept home…that can’t gi…wait…I’ll be honest.  That gives more often than not. You get my drift though.

Life is just passing by so quickly.   I am often reminded that I am getting older( ahem Amber), but to be honest, when I think of myself I still picture the 20 year old version.  Smashing Pumpkins in the cassette player, energetic smile, happy heart.  I guess it’s not a bad thing to live in oblivion…there are worse places.  Someone asked me my age the other day and I actually said 29…because for a moment I actually thought I was.  Fat chance.  I’ll be 33 in November.

I’ll tell you something that did make me feel old tho.  I recently had an engagement session with the beautiful Lorie and her Phil.  Lorie is from my hometown.  I have always thought of her as a happy youngin…a little tot who always had a smile on her face and cheer in her voice.  She is not a tot anymore.  She is a woman, a nurse, a fiance…but she still has that vibrant smile and cheerful voice.  Time passes but some things never change.  I can’t wait for her wedding in December!

and in the words of Ferris Bueller “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”
