It was my daughter’s 1st birthday on the 8th and I thought I would cry but I didn’t. It was definitely the most sentimental 1st birthday because it’s the last. I heard a song on the radio and I’m going to share it here. It’s called These Are The Days by Cory Asbury.
I cried the first time I heard this song. The line where he says, “Darlin’ before we know it, This old house will be quiet”….that line hit me the hardest. I can already feel it now. When it’s quiet or when they are just sitting there watching their shows I look at them and I just want to freeze that moment. Because we’ll never get these moments back. There will come a day when they won’t want those bedtime stories. There will be those days when they won’t come crying to us when they fall. So when I feel frustrated and tired, I will think about this song and try to cherish every moment. No matter how hard parenting is and how mad we get sometimes, these are days we’ll really want back.
