Pictures on my Fridge

It's easy for me to get overwhelmed with the amount of paper my kids go through.  Both kids use 10-30 pieces of paper a day - all pictures they give me and Todd and hope we'll keep or do something with.  The kitchen table has projects on it every second of the day, except during dinner, and there are markers and scraps of paper all over the floor all the time.

But last night, I suddenly realized how sad I would be when pictures like this are no longer on my fridge:

It turns out, it's gonna happen all too soon.  Time goes fast.  I know that one day I'll look around and wonder where all the paper went.  So today I'm going to enjoy it.  Because honestly, how can you not smile looking at a princess like that?

Yes it is true - but sometimes hard to remember in the moment.
