time flies when you are having fun

I ready a post today on Facebook that a dear friend wrote who is getting ready to watch her baby girl get married day after tomorrow.  She's wondering how it got here so fast.  I remember picking out my mother of the bride dress and dress shopping with my only daughter like it was yesterday... but it was two years ago.  She's almost been married two years and is a wonderful mom to a one year old.

Yup, my little grandson Cooper has turned 1 already.  It's hard to believe. Time passes so quickly.  Today I found myself down the rabbit hole of looking back through an entire year of photos trying to find a favorite.  And well I just couldn't. I love all of them.  So I decided to share with you a couple of him in his Cozy Coupe Firetruck that Papa and I got him for this birthday. In this one you can see that he's easily transitioned to his big boy cup with a straw and he's taking his "Ricky Rino" for a ride in the firetruck while having a glass of milk.  And in other big news... he got 4 teeth ON his birthday.  He already had two on bottom, but he actually cut 4 top teeth on his birthday and he still wasn't too grumpy to enjoy his cake.  I have one more that Joe in my office took of him in his firetruck that I'll share... then I'm going to get back to marketing work.  But y'all remember to make time for the people you love.  Nothing is more important than friends and family.

Time moves more quickly than smoke through a keyhole.  Last week, I was sorting through some old family pictures and couldn't believe the years passed between.

Sally K. & David L. Hanson you know I almost can pin point the day that I thought the same thing... that he changed from looking like our baby to a little boy. My daughter sent a photo and it was the exact thought I had... he's made that change over in looks.  He's talking so much now too and begining to put words together.  The other day he asked his mom when he got up "where dada?" and when she said he's coming home... Cooper replied "dada today" .

Sharon Tara and I enjoyed watching them grow and your annual birthday photo posts too.  I was longing for a grandbaby... not rushing, but definitely longing for the 10 years you beat me to it.

Sally K. & David L. Hanson I think it was losing some of his baby chunk in face and neck... cause bless his heart, he doesn't need a hair cut... we keep waiting for hair.

Hi Tammy Lankford, Cooper is precious, you are blessed to have him. Time does fly by, like Endre Barath, Jr. said, whether you're having fun or not.

It does fly by, Tammy. However, you are aware of how precious this time is in our lives - and that makes all the difference. I know you are savoring every second. D

I really need to get back to blogging Endre Barath, Jr. , but I'd have to give up sleep to do it between real estate and Cooper right now.  And I generally don't babysit more than two times a week after hours, but real estate has really gotten hectic right now.  I have 6 contracts currently in various stages and just put in a new listing today.

Tammy Lankford, - I just had to come back to one of your previous posts to read about the little miracle boy in your life. Cooper is a God sent! The chapters of his life are so different than anything your daughter experienced, you or I. New life deserves all the love each family member can give. As they grow up, they deserve to have healthy food, shelter, and a sense of loving belonging. He's got that! I worry about my granddaughter's future too. I worry about my daughter and son-in-law overseas, and my son and daughter-in-law in the Midwest. I was surprised to get a phone call from my granddaughter two days ago on Sunday. She is 7 and was so excited because her mom and dad (my son) bought her a phone watch. At first I was surprised and thought that was an unusual gift. But after getting the whole picture, I know now what a great idea that is because my son and his wife are working and she's home alone with my daughter-in-law's son from a previous marriage who is now a teenager. She's still on Zoom with her Teacher since March and it looks like next school semester too. With the phone, she has four numbers she has permission to call anytime, day or night to mommy, daddy, me, or her other grandfather. There are parental controls so she won't get calls from anyone else. She knows how to use the alarms to remember to eat breakfast and lunch, etc. But you know, it' killing me to know I can't be there for her or that she can't come to stay with me. A grandchild is a precious gift and we have to love them with our whole heart and soul and have faith no harm will come their way. Blessings to you and your family.
