Yesterday was Esther's 8th birthday. She is growing up so fast. Both the girls are. It's crazy. I look at photos of them as babies and it feels like yesterday. Those photos capture a moment. A moment in time that we can never get back. A moment before they grow more and more.
And today is a moment like that. I currently have 4 of Esther's friends asleep (hopefully!) with her and Phoebe on our lounge floor. I looked at them today and tried to capture the moment.
For you see, each moment is special. Each moment is quite unlike the one before, and unlike any that will come again. And each moment is one to be captured. To be treasured.
That's not always easy. I was talking today to a friend who has recently adopted and the made me think as she said, "I'm just doing tasks and feel like I'm borrowing them for now." That cannot be easy. I hope her moments become ones to treasure.
So today, capture a moment. Hold it tight. Maybe do something unusual, something different. And capture it. For it is a blessed moment, and it's for you.
