I Don’t Want to Miss These Moments

My bloggy friend Pam has a blog carnival that she plays on the week-ends…it just always grabs my heart, but I haven’t ever done it before. Since the fire and as I walk thru life I am convinced more and more that I just “don’t wanna miss this moment.”

Some moments I definitely don’t want to miss:The other day I found Elijah had climbed onto the island where there is a prep sink…and like all good mommies I grabbed my camera….cause I just don’t want to miss this moment…Let’s see, I think mom turns this….Ummm, maybe not….Maybe this is the trick….Ummmm, how in the world does this thing work….Whew, this is gonna be fun….Notice green cup filled with juice in backgroundIt really must be this thing…..Well no, maybe she moves this….

Maybe it’s “cup activated” Ditch the stupid cup!! It must be LIKE THIS!!!!!! (argh)…

All this work can make a guy hungry…..let’s see if I can scrounge up a little grub…


Suh-weeeet!!! Somebody left some turkey on the counter….. AND the mayonnaise is out…
Pour on the mayonnaise!!!And yes, he was totally oblivious to me the entire time…..

  1. Oh Linny—what a sweet little angel boy. I smiled all the way through 🙂

    Have a very blessed weekend with your special family. Trusting you're feeling a whole lot better. Go on, I dare you—go and eat a good ol' hotdog :):)

  2. Love it, love it, love it!!! I think my thankful Thursday would say I am thankful for cameras that can catch all of these precious moments. : )

  3. Linny,
    Bless you for letting the precious moments happen. So many would scream: "no, don't, get down from there…" … etc. In allowing a child (children) to explore at the moment, in his/her own way creates a special kind of learning… AND patience from a special Mom.
    Warm hugs to you…
