Time

I've been thinking a lot about time lately. Basically, how it goes SO fast. I've heard it before--how time with kids goes so fast--but I didn't understand how fast.
Abby starts kindergarten this month. She's ready. I know she'll do great. It's me that's having a hard time. For the past five years, I've had her with me nearly all the time. In a couple weeks, she's going to be in school for 7 hours a day! My time with her is going to be so limited and so much more precious.
There have been plenty of teaching moments and fun times, but at the same time I wonder where I could have done better. Sometimes I wish I could have a "do over" and be more patient, more involved, less busy with other things, but I am glad I have an opportunity to look back and see what I'd like to do better. And you better believe that we will be taking advantage of every day until school starts!
