I was going through some old pictures this morning when I found this one of Lucca in 2010. A reminder of how time passes, of how we need to enjoy those moments while they happen. Looking back I am so glad I remember the smell of that day, the texture of the pumpkins. How much fun we had. I am glad I was there and present for that as there is no going back.

If you are wondering if you need to slow down and enjoy life, the answer is yes. Do this before your kids grow up. They are precious and small for such a short amount of time.
