"You're Gonna Miss This"

"You're gonna miss this. You're gonna want this back. You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast. These are some good times. So take a good look around. You may not know it now. But you're gonna miss this." ~Trace Adkins

I was reminded this week of how precious life is and how quickly it can be taken away. I am a big believer of living in the now. Living life to it's fullest and enjoying each moment we have. I am so thankful to have Marq & Chevy in my life! Although we are just starting out our life together and we have so much left to do, see, experience and accomplish "the present moment is the field on which the game of life happens. " It may just be the 3 of us, but for now... this is exactly where we want to be. At times our lives get crazy, but it's OUR life. We are a family!

More great quote from "A New Earth"...
"In the seeing of who you are not, the reality of who you are emerges by itself."
"Whatever you fight, you strengthen, and what you resist, persists."
"Awareness is the power that is concealed within the present moment"
"When you live in a world deadened by mental abstraction, you don't see the aliveness of the universe anymore."

Lynzie, I just wanted to say hi. It's good to see what you've been up to lately sense we never see each other anymore. If you go to our blog you can see pictures of the kids they are growing up so fast.
