Sometimes it's hard to enjoy each moment but they will so soon be in the past. And as we keep reminding ourselves, when our girls are teenagers, we're going to wish our only worries were that they kept dropping their food and plates on the floor!<br />Got your message on the Moms Blogger Club.

I think it's all about setting your priorities and then focusing your time around them. If those two things are in lined, then I think it makes for a happy and fulfilling life!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13188739464116707416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4985211159621672227.post-42838670033101043362010-11-07T21:37:51.435-05:002010-11-07T21:37:51.435-05:00I have a marker board and a calendar to keep on tr...I have a marker board and a calendar to keep on track.

This week/weekend flew by for me too, and I'm not quite sure what I accomplished other than working, taking care of my family, and keeping the house clean and tidy. I didn't get a chance to pause... Sometimes I think that without blogging, I wouldn't have a chance to reflect or capture any of Lil' Lewie's milestones--they would be missed. I'm still searching for a way to "stop and smell the roses."Annettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10751729674145716517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4985211159621672227.post-79090575800926822612010-11-07T12:39:07.359-05:002010-11-07T12:39:07.359-05:00I agree time flies!

It helps put everything else into perspective.<br /><br />We did not get to have our bonfire last night, but they combined the corn today, so maybe soon. We did have a great Guy Fawkes Night with friends, however.

Like Sommer, I usually carry my camera around with me. And I also try to do something fun with Georgia during the day, like baking or coloring. And when she asks me to play a specific game, I always stop what I'm doing and we play - because soon she might not want me to play with her. Enjoy the weekend!cooperl788https://www.blogger.com/profile/08903541298189613642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4985211159621672227.post-27659360758250455552010-11-06T02:58:41.419-04:002010-11-06T02:58:41.419-04:00Oh wow.

Even in a store, I've had fellow patrons look at me crazy for taking photos....of everything. So yes, have your camera on hand maybe. even if you don't take any photos. I remember silly things like walks to the store with my daughter and son, because I was taking photos. I still have mommy brain, though!!Sommerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11982366863485663933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4985211159621672227.post-52105377279560795892010-11-06T01:21:38.104-04:002010-11-06T01:21:38.104-04:00OMG.

My days seem mundane, but I do love doing fun things with my son and his other little friends whom I watch in my home 5 days a week...just to well make some fun memories, but at times, I feel like its soo mundane. This is play time, this changing time, this is nap time...you get the point..I do need to figure out how to spice it up a bit I think.Heather Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01243422900051057070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4985211159621672227.post-40320960240212362162010-11-06T01:21:12.222-04:002010-11-06T01:21:12.222-04:00i've not given a thought about it...:) but thi...i've not given a thought about it...:) but this makes me think, thank you mama Hen.<br />thanks for stopping by earlier. <br />Have a good weekend.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17794298537868169062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4985211159621672227.post-70398410094961931392010-11-06T00:43:02.893-04:002010-11-06T00:43:02.893-04:00What a great question.
