OOPS.. forgotten draft.. now posted!

I wrote this draft the beginning of January.. and just realized it never got posted!
Enjoy...

So.. it's 2011! Here are some random thoughts going through my mind after just typing 2011...

It seems insane time can go by so quickly, of course we (and everything surrounding us) goes with it..
we age, we grow.. some of us shrink once we get to be a certain age! ;) ..
but it's always been so insane to me how it goes so fast
How do we spend every moment in our own lives, yet when we turn 27 we still feel 16 or 18.. how do we spend almost every waking moment with our children, yet on their 3rd birthday we find ourselves wondering "where did those three years go?". I just wonder how that happens. My most obvious assumption is that we get so bogged down with our day to day lives (whether exciting or mundane) that we just forget. We don't literally forget time is passing.. we just forget little moments. Our mind capacity is too small to store every moment we experience and we just.. forget. It sounds sad really, that we forget moments of our lives. But I can attest to the truth of it.. (I don't know if attest is the correct spelling of the word I'm trying to use and I'm most certainly not stopping this flow of thought to go look it up) anyhow.. I am a 27 year old mother of one three year old and those are my thoughts..
When did I hit 27, where are those years in between.. what did those moments (once so close to the surface in my memory) hold? when did my son turn THREE..
when did I grow up, inherit this marriage, bills, car, house.. this life?!
This precious life I've both loved and hated.. and in the end, most certainly always.. LOVE.

See what a month of not posting gets me (and you, if you're still with me)?!

enjoy all your moments in 2011!
