Cherish the Moment

Today was Sariah's "Moving Up Ceremony".  As I sat in the audience, I go down memory lane, remembering so many moments of my little girl.

I remember being pregnant and not knowing what to expect as a new mom.  I remember Greg telling me how to breathe while I was in labor as if he knew what it felt like to push a baby out...LOL.  I remember being a first time mom and all the mothers and non-mothers sharing advice that I did and didn't want to hear.

I remember dropping Sariah off at her first day at daycare. I remember having to tell Sariah that her cousins Christian and Christina would be living with us.  I remember around that same time, having to explain to her, then a 2.5 year-old, would be a having a sister joining the family.  14-months later, she had to be told she was expecting a brother....LOL. Sariah has grown from being a little baby to a little lady.  Time goes by so fast.  The theme of today's graduation was "Cherish the Moment".  The lesson was to enjoy all moments with your children - good and not-so good.  Today, Sariah showed so much confidence, and she made me even more proud to be her mom.

Remembering these moments were so touching...What I didn't remember was to bring a box of Kleenex :)




Silent Night,
Annie
