Time passing

I can not believe that my kids are six already. They are getting so big now. They are their own little people. Em is loving, cuddly, and can be so sweet. But give her the chance and she can push her brothers buttons. And J is always there when he is called on, always ready to help out. He is the man in this family, albeit a small one. But when it comes to the way things are supposed to be, it is black and white. There is no gray area as far as he can see it. I am so sad to see them growing up so fast but also happy for every day I get to spend with them. They are beautiful creations. I look at them and can not believe that they came from me. I look forward to the spring and getting to be with them and do things with them. And summer when we all get to be off and enjoy our time together in the warmth. But for not I will try to take advantage of everyday. As each day passes that is one less day we have to enjoy together. Sooner or later they will be off doing their own things and I will neither be wanted or needed.
