Blink and they are 8. Then 12. Then for what will feel like milliseconds, they’re adults. Before you know it, they’re parents, resembling the you you once were. Take it in & enjoy the little moments that mean so much. Let them climb into bed with you in the middle of the night. Sing that song they requested for for the millionth time. Hold them a little tighter when all they want to do is hug on you. Feel the small body against your own. Maybe in raising children, you lose your mind a little bit, but you sure do find your soul! We have 18 summers (if we’re lucky) with our babies. Embrace the experience. The exhaustion and the joy. Tomorrow will be your first day of middle school! 😱🥺😘#perspective #Orion #Bubby #jarofhappyhearts #Sunmer2019 #Guam #guamlife #islandlife #11yearsold #almost12 (at Tumon Bay, Guam, United States) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1DGjjHlWse/?igshid=y9mflx5tyihw
