In a rare post regarding the munchinks, I have to confess I had a "moment" the other day. Lots of my mom friends get all choked up at every milestone and "last" that they experience with their babies. Ty and I are not so much in love with the baby phase and actually have found we enjoy each new phase more than the last. However, on Sat when E had her first dance recital and wasn't even nervous or scared or clingy in the slightest, it happened. I had the moment. I realized, my kids aren't babies at all anymore. They are growing into fine independent young people who are engaging with the world around them less and less needing our hand at every turn. It actually did make me nostalgic for a bit. I do love her age now (mostly!) and with J finishing his first year of school at home I know there's no turning back. Time is only going to keep rushing faster and faster from this point! We are excited at what will be next for them. Mostly though, we are excited that they are growing to love Jesus and interact more with others and this world in light of His Kingdom and His reality. We certainly loved watching E dance though! And J wasn't too bad at soccer this year either! We rejoice at the gift of raising these 2 precious people to know and love and serve our Savior. We continually ask for wisdom and guidance from the giver of all life, that's for sure!
