Savoring the Marrow

I spend alot of time lately just staring at my children.  I know it sounds creepy but they are literally growing up right before my eyes.  The subtle changes in their Jaw line, height, or facial hair leaves me in awe. I can never get back these last seven months, but guess what. I don't need to.  I play games with them, laugh and cry with them, and play with them.  I am savoring the marrow of what I have left in the world of parenting children and it feels marvelous.  Today we blogged about a crane, shot a game of pool, and learned to make biscuits and gravy together.  Today.  I missed so much of my first four children's lives.  While I do get to peer through the small window of their adult lives I am grateful for this time.  This time I have to truly get to know them as children.
