Flying Clocks

We'll be the first, though certainly not the only, to admit that our experiences as a grwoing family have been like a whirl wind and a roller-coaster. It's amazing how fast time flies and with all the responsibility and often stress of raising three kids, it's easy to lose track of time. Much like driving a familiar route, you often arrive not really remembering this particular drive and it's like you were in a trance half the time.

I was looking through some of our old webpages with the kids last night, and it was amazing to go back over some of the wedding photos, and vacations, and then come up to the pages when Claudia and Joe first came to our home, and the adventures we had with them while we 'waited' for Theia to come. A month to the day after Claudia and Joe came, Theia arrived, and our little roller-coaster has been rushing forward at a similar neck-break pace ever since.

Looking back on the photos though, I realize I will never forget some of those most precious moments to me. Claudia and Joe waking up on their first day with us, getting to go camping at Joshua Tree National Park with them, going to the beach, and then the day tiny Theia came, ushering a whole new dimension to our lives since she was a newborn.

I thought I'd post a few photos just so we can all reminisce together. Enjoy!
