A REMINDER

While helping our son, Marc, pack up things at the house he is selling, a few weeks ago, I stumbled on this picture.

It was taken Christmas of 1996 with my 2 granddaughters.  Oksana was 10 months old and Jessica had just turned 10 on the 23rd.

Just a reminder to me of how time flies and how very precious every moment is.  Also, a huge reminder of how very much I've aged!!!!  I was also celebrating my 59th birthday that December 25th.

Very happy memories.

    I love that picture! You looked great then and you still do. On top of that - I bet you are more beautiful inside now than then, because you've been walking with God for that much longer!

    Beautiful reminder! :)

    In '96 we were celebrating our first Christmas married! Wow, time does fly!

    I had to click on the picture to see if I was missing something! Definitely didn't look almost 59 there! Hope I look that good in 10 years!
