October has come and gone so quickly. Some days I wake up and think didn't that just happen yesterday? and then I realize a whole week has already passed me by. It's about this time that I see Ferris Bueller in my head saying, "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."
I've gotta tell myself to stop and look around. Stop. and look around...because I really don't want to miss a thing.
I don't want to miss the thrill that fall brings to our house. Or the excitement of the first batch of pumpkin cookies. I don't want to miss the debate of costumes and the minds that are changed daily. Or the way they ogle over pictures of Halloweens past. I don't want to miss the feeling of pulling into our far away friend's driveway as they run towards our car with glee. Or Christian's favorite new word "creepy." And Dallin's voracious/addictive reading of Harry Potter. And Ella's ever undying love of stuffed animals. Or spending time at the sort of happiest place on earth. Or Lincoln's couch gymnastics. And the joy (and sweet relief) of dad returning home.
Thanks, Ferris. Such words of wisdom. :)
