Moments to Remember.......

Last night we took the kids to Chik-Fil-A for dinner, and Merrily the clown was there painting faces, and making balloon hats for the kids. Emma and Teddy were very eager, and excited to have their faces painted. Emma had hers painted like a tiger,and Teddy wanted to look like a cow (his new obsession being the Chik-Fil-A cow)

This morning, when I went to clean their faces they were upset. Teddy pleaded with me to let him wear his to school so he could show Mrs. Ellis (his teacher). Why not? After all so many of us stand in front of the mirror every morning "painting" faces so to speak, so why couldn't they go out with their painted faces. That is exactly what they did. I had the cutest little tiger and cow by my side today!

They are only little once, and now is the time to make our memories. It made me think of the lyrics to a song called "Moments to Remember", though summer turns to winter and the present disappears, the laughter we were glad to share will echo through the years.
