Moments Matter

Snow days are the best days!

I have always been giddy when handed a snow day.
This year is no different.
As a matter of fact, I have cherished this year's snow days more than ever.
(even though we've only had two....)
It is Courtney's Senior year in high school, 
and I don't know when we will have our "Last Snow Day."
That's the thing about "lasts;" 
you never know when they are actually the last.

I don't recall the last bottle I gave her or the last time she let me rock her to sleep.
They happened, though.
I don't remember the dates of the "lasts" of many things for either of the kids,
but I know that they happened.
As the kids grew up and needed us less and less,
the number of "lasts" increased.

My point is this:
I don't know when I will have my last snow day with Sister,
so my plan for each of them this year is to just be with her.
...to visit
...to giggle
...to eat junk food, comfort food, and amazing dessert
...to drink coffee and cocoa
...to watch movies 
...to visit some more

Moments matter.
They come and they go in a blink of an eye.
I think that my babies grew up in a blink as well.
I'm so incredibly proud of the humans they are becoming, 
but at the same time, I'm holding on to every little moment I can have with each of them!

Enjoy every moment, friends.
Each is delicious in it's own way.

I love Christmas Eve when the house is quiet and there is nothing left to do but wait for Santa and Christmas morning to arrive!
