Our children are getting older now, they are both in their teens. Time goes by so fast….it seems like yesterday they were playing with Legos, cars, and dolls, and now they are dreaming of their futures and what God has in store for them.

This past weekend  my son told us he wanted an Easter egg hunt. Little did he know that we would actually follow through with his request. While dad was busy outside hiding the eggs, our son was trying to guess what was going on. When he found out we were have an Easter egg hunt, it was

It was as if we had released his inner child and he was ready to go. When we said, “On your mark get set go,” I saw the eyes of my younger children from days past having the time of their lives.

Friends lets step back from the mundane of life, lets walk away from what we call, “important” , which is really not important at all. Let’s ask God to help us reorganize our priorities and welcome our children back into our lives. Let’s take the time to treasure every moment with them, while teaching them about a Savior who loves them more than they could imagine.

Take the time to be silly, to laugh and to love. Let’s cherish these wonderful snapshots in time, because it’s these moments that make up the wholeness of our memories that we will treasure forever.
