Although the last couple of days here have been fairly nice it is definitely obvious that summer is ending and fall is coming quickly. I have found myself wishing, wishing, wishing, in the last couple of days that I could slow the hands of time and that my kids wouldn't grow up quite so fast. When you first have a baby everyone says, "Enjoy it now, they grow up too fast" and in your sleep deprived state you think, yeah right. No one told me that it is ACTUALLY true! All of a sudden I looked and T is almost 3 and Baby G will be 1 in a couple of months. How does that happen?
A few months ago when Jeff and I were out on a date (a really romantic one that included going to the bookstore to peruse the shelves!) I found a book by my absolute favorite author, Karen Kingsbury. It is a childrens book titled Let Me Hold You Longer and it talks about holding onto each and every precious moment because soon enough kids will be growing up and on their own. 
Like the title of this blog, it makes me grateful for today and grateful for each and every precious moment. Here are a few picture from our wonderful summer.
