Blink...

Teach me to number my days
And count every moment
Before it slips away
Take in all the colors
Before they fade to grey























I don't want to miss
Even just a second
More of this























It happens in a blink, it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there's no stopping time
What is it I've done with my life?























It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink























When it's all said and done
No one remembers
How far we've run
The only thing that matters
IS HOW WE HAVE LOVED























I don't want to miss
Even just a second
More of this

















It happens in a blink, it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there's no stopping time
What is it I've done with my life?
















Slow down
Slow down


















Before today becomes
Our yesterday


















It happens in a blink, it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there's no stopping time
What is it I've done with my life?




















It happens in a blink....

I heard this song a while back and just cried my eyes out!! I just thought about my life and especially about being a mother and how it seems like it's gone by so fast and how I've just missed out on a lot of stuff because I've been focused on the wrong things! I've been feeling this way for some time now!! My prayer this year is that I would live life!! Be in the moment -experience -really feel it!! I don't want it to just pass by -I want to love better -to be more intentional in everything I do -and really work on strengthening friendships and family relationships!! I can't believe that it is 2011 and Will's Birthday!! Before we know it, we'll be celebrating another new year!! I don't want to miss out!!
