Ya know, people always say that time just flies, and life passes you right on by, but I always thought it couldn't go fast enough! I couldn't wait to get out of high school, start college, move out, get married, etc. etc. And it's true that these are exciting things, but I think sometimes I forgot to stop and realize all the good that was around me, to enjoy the moment, and now a lot of those moments have past by so fast. It's incredible to think that less than a year ago...
I was just beginning my senior year in high school, and now I've completed a block (12 credits) of my college education.
I was trying to cope with the fact that my best friend was leaving on a two year mission, and now he has been gone more than nine months.. where did the time go?
I was attending Young Womens and Girls Camp at my home ward, and now I attend Relief Society at a singles ward. (I used to think you had to be so old to go to Relief Society!)
My other best friend and I spent weekends watching chic flics, making music videos, and having sleepovers... now she is getting married this fall. No more silly sleepovers, chic flics, and music videos.
I was surrounded by siblings at my house, and now my sister has moved out, and my brother moved to Provo. And my other sister and I will be moving out in a month, leaving an almost empty house for my parents.
I could spend money at my own free will and not think a thing about it! Now with tuition, rent, and living expenses, I have to be so conciouse of my budget.
It's incredible how fast time flies, and how life changes. I'm constantly reminded to enjoy the here and now, to spend time with friends and appreciate them cuz they won't always be around, and to have fun with what stage of life I am in! These past months have been a whirlwind of change, and it's not about to slow down, so I guess I'll just hang on tight and enjoy the ride!

Good to stop and smell the roses once in awhile, eh? But it's in those moments that I can't believe how fast my kids are growing up! So, are we mad that Comfort got another shot and Kherington is booted? what??? Jessica doesn't deserve to go on tour...well, okay, maybe. My predictions for the top four: Will, Joshua, Chelsie and Katee.
