My How We Grow...


In a year...

A few months...


Or even in a few years...

The time just comes and goes.  Up and down through the passage of time; with experience, meals eaten, tricks learned and lessons taught.  The passage of acquaintance to friend, fetus to child, child to Mama, I am continually amazed by this life.  So magnified as we watch our little ones shift.  So subtle as we watch ourselves.  The line graph is only going up and forward, but the change is swift and quiet in it's incline.  With excellent retrospect, hard drives and shoe boxes filled with images we look back and watch the times as they shift.  The old versions of ourselves come across in tales of old, odd nights spent making memories.  A few bits of innocence slip away, and if we're lucky enough they get replaced by wisdom.
