Hello "everyone" (I mean, does anyone actually read these posts?),
Well, the wedding has come and gone, and it was a blast. I wouldn't call it a complete success, but we certainly looked the part! Addison did not end up walking down the aisle alone, but Joe carried her down which just may have been the sweetest thing I have ever seen. I got a tiny glimpse of the heart-swelling that will take place (Lord-willing) when he walks her down another aisle one day (sob, sob). She looked adorable and really let loose at the reception, which was darling to watch!
I wanted to blog a bit on the concept of "time." It is so funny to me how one's idea of time changes at different points of one's life. For example, before I became a mother, if I had a free hour, I would contemplate what to do and would end up doing nothing because who can get anything done in just 60 short minutes, right? Well, well...now that I have a toddler and an infant at my feet at all times, if (and that's a BIG "if") I, for some reason or another, have 60 minutes of downtime, you better believe it is SATURATED with everything from showering, running the vacuum, washing any dishes in the sink, throwing clothes in the dryer, making beds, sweeping the kitchen floor, praying (for another 60 minutes), preparing lunch, sneaking in something to eat AND there is usually time to check my email!!! WHEW, what I can do in those precious minutes! So, whether you are at a point in your life where the "free" hours come frequently (ENJOY), or you are salivating and watching the clock awaiting nap time for your little ones, know that this is a season and it will pass...as will the hours!
Be Blessed,
Melissa

I read them all! =) And I really like this one. It is funny to think what we would do with the 'time' we used to have if we had it now...I have a feeling it would be a lot less fulfilling! =)
If I read them all, I sometimes have to read a couple out once, but I read them. And I love it bc we don't get to see each other as often as either of us would like, it's like catching up with an old friend. Also, I know exactly how to pray for you know, I will pray for useful time; not just time, but useful time. Time is a gift many will say, but the giver of time (who is not bound but time) is truly the gift! Love you Canney's much!!!
If you write it we will read it.
