Because They Grow Up Way Too Fast..

We played in the mud all afternoon until it was too dark to see.
We even ate dinner outside on the patio.
We walked barefoot through the grass, picked dandelions, and added a whole bottle of dish soap to the baby pool.  That soapy water made the slide lightning fast when we poured it on there which caused us to squeal with great delight.
Oh that these moments of JOY could last forever.  I just long to sit and cherish each and every little one as long as I can...
