It may sound cliche, but our children really do seem to grow up right before our eyes. I remember being a kid and feeling like the school year lasted for-ever! It seemed so long, like it would never end. When I would play with my older sister and her friends, I felt like I would never be big enough. I would never grow up! These days, I would give my right arm to slow the clock down. The pages of the calendar just seem to flip by and my children seem taller every time I turn around. With 4 young kids, it seems that hardly a week goes by without reaching another milestone of some sort...graduating from potty training, a tooth lost, shoes learning to be tied, a first pimple, and the birthdays come so quickly!
That's why it is so important to me to record those every day moments in our lives. I am hardly ever without a camera, even if it's just my phone. I take pictures daily and I know I will cherish all of those memories for years to come.
Gymboree has launched a campaign to celebrate those cherished memories in our children's lives. They have put together this amazing video to share and encourage moms and dads everywhere to take a moment to reflect on their own precious life moments.
I hope you will take a moment to take stock in your precious memories. Please feel free to share your thoughts here if you'd like.

Wow ... what beautiful shots!!!
ReplyDeleteBut that drinking from the bowl shot is really my favorite :-D
Sweet sweet shots!! I love the one of the two littles sleeping together Precious! Yes it goes by much too quickly as soon as you become a parent.
ReplyDeleteSo precious. I almost always see them either alone or in pairs & they always looks so poised & grown. It wasn't until the shot of the 4 of them that it hit me of just how little they still are. Cherished times!! It goes by way too fast.
ReplyDeleteWhat sweet pictures! I am finally old enough that I believe my parents and everyone else that the years just fly by! I try to take a lot of pictures also :)
ReplyDeleteI love the everyday pics! I was just talking with a friend at church today about how fast our kids have grown up. She coached my son's soccer team when he was 4...he's 15 now and learning to drive!! Seems like I looked away for just a moment and he grew up!
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable lifestyle images. Love the B and W! I totally dropped the ball with joining in this Friday! Friday was crazy, but I'll be back this week!
ReplyDeleteYou capture such emotion in your images, Melissa.
ReplyDeleteThis is truly a very special gift.
