You really can't fully appreciate the saying "Time Flies" until you become a parent. I have spent the last (almost) 21 years being a mom. And although I am THRILLED that my children have graduated high school and are movin on up, I felt myself starting to lose it when they played that darn Pomp and Circumstance as my sons class marched into the auditorium last night.
Sometimes I surprise myself though. Many moms cry, obsess and even get depressed about their children growing up but I have never been emotional about things like that. More than once I've offered my support to weepy friends at the kindergarten door and even rolled my eyes at their ridiculousness - but last night was different for me. I literally had to "suck it up" to keep my composure as my youngest baby accepted his diploma. It must be pride that gets me all verklempt. Yeah, that's it.
PLEASE, PLEASE TAKE AS MANY PHOTOS OF YOUR KIDS AS YOU CAN. And remember, the best camera is simply the one you have with you....camera phone, point and shoot or a DSLR. Snap away because you will never gets those days back and you will never regret having too many photos - even if they are not perfect.
And for those special times or anytime you would like professional images of your children give me a call or contact me through my website. I would love to help you remember today.
The pic on the left was snapped of my son at three-years-old by his preschool teacher in class. I love it! The second pic was yesterday.
