Where did the time go??? My nephew Loimata was baptized and became a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Being born and raised in a LDS church this is a ritual that occurs when you are 8 years old. It's no surprise to me that Loi was baptized because he loves the Gospel. What surprises me is how quickly he went from a baby that fit in my arms to a handsome young boy who will be approaching puberty in a few years. Oh how I wish I could turn back the hands of time maybe 4 years back. Why?? Why would I do that? I guess the image of Loi as a toddler arouses feelings of a younger age for me too....haha!! Well, tough luck for me!!
Time is not tangible and not something that I can stop. I'm just being silly. Loi, Taliafi (dallin), and Baby Milan are the most amazing blessings in my life!! I don't care what age they are! They bring me so much joy! Time really is actually a blessing! In time we have created the memories from our past, we also have the here and now, plus the excitement of what the future holds. It's how we spend our time that counts :-). It's all about the journey, right? While on this journey called life I hope chase after my dreams with vigor and courage. I wish to love and laugh like there is no tomorrow. (One can only hope!) I'll embrace the opportunities placed before me and also embrace the friendships that I make along the way. Most importantly for me is to cherish those I hold dear to me!! When all is said and done what we have is our memories created over time. It's up to us to make it worthwhile. Awwww........ :-)
On the flipside, time isn't friendly on the body....I can do without the wrinkles, gray hair, and non existent metabolism...haha!
