Enjoy every moment possible with your children, time is so fleeting.
The excitement on their faces when you come home, soon turns to disappointment that they don't have more time doing their own things.
The excited hugs, quickly turned to embarrassed ones.
The eagerness to see a smile on your face, soon turns to eagerness to escape you.
The eagerness to see you, soon turns to eagerness to see your wallet.
What was a penny, nickle or dime, soon turns to hundreds.
Being their world, quickly turns to a world beyond your grasp.
Willingness to help, soon turns to resentment in helping.
If only time could stand still, or better yet.. to know then, what I experience today.
