This year for whatever reason, time has been a big factor in my life. I can feel it slipping away faster than I can schedule it. Don't get me wrong, I love being busy and having fun things to do but it seems like even the fun stuff feels like a chore. Everyone says that once you have a child, time flies by and they are right!
I don't even remember summer starting, but it is coming to a close so fast I can't stand it! I can feel fall in the air, I can feel Halloween sneaking up on us, I can feel the cold winter air coming down from Canada. The last time I checked the calendar in the kitchen, it was April. The weather was fantastic, the days were getting longer and the promise of fantastic summer nights were lingering on the breeze. It's now the end of August and I feel like I have yet to enjoy the summer due to a multitude of factors.
We haven't done anything this summer but work and stress out over nonsense. I have gone to school for a year straight and it's really starting to wear on me. I feel like there is still a time for one last hurrah before I pack away my capri pants but I feel like time is running out. I have never felt this way before but as I approach my 30th birthday with incredible speed, I feel like I am counting how many springs and summers I will see in my lifetime. It's kind of a dark feeling but it is sadly the truth.
Anywho, I have plans for super fun orchard time and great fall crafts with my munchkin. I just hope that she remembers all the crazy things we did while she was growing up and doesn't get caught up in the doldrums of life. I want her to look forward to the change in seasons and welcome them and all they bring. And not count how many more years of life she has left like her worry-wort mother!
