Life happens

I have been abit slack with my blog this past couple of weeks, yes I've posted reviews and just about managed to get my Silent Sunday up, but the general posts, the ones I love most have been abit thin on the ground, yet so much has happened, so very much I wanted to blog about.

The days seem to merge together, the weeks pass by so very quickly, I can't quite believe its June already.  June 2012!

The past few weeks have been somewhat bittersweet, my youngest turned 5, my daughter turned 9 the other day too, all three of my children are growing up, so very fast.

Then to confirm their passage into the next stage of their lives, my youngest learnt to ride his bike without the stabilisers. He did so well, he got his new bike for his birthday and I have mentioned before that he has been desperate to learn to ride 2 wheeled like his older brother and sister for a while, and last week he did just that.

When Jake and Chloe learnt I cheered and beamed with pride watching them pedal away, me pushing Mikey in his pram behind them, wistfully watching as they grew and matured smiling and cherishing the thought of doing it all again in a few years with my youngest.

I feel the same pride watching Mikey pedal so fast to keep up with his older siblings, but it makes my heart pang with a touch of sadness realising its another stage finished, and one as a parent I won't go through again with him being my last.

Thank goodness for Cameras and Videos and blogs to store the memories!
