my 500th post  

Posted by Lauren

looking back at old friends, old old friends, graduating from high school gives me the chills. when I left them we were just finishing up middle school. that seems forever away. I hurt for the old times. when being immature was part of the fun. I think of the sleepovers, the all-nighters, the theme park trips, the homeschool sewing classes (oh boy), all the church plays, I could go on forever.


& I miss it.
I miss being really young. I miss the innocence of no responsibilities.
I think back and remember lots of good times.
but I also remember some really bad times.
one really bad time.
when I thought my life might as well be over.
but that time turned me into what I am today.
and i'm not sure I could have gotten here without it.

growing a day older is no fun, but it can't be stopped. two years ago I used to wish my life would go faster, I wish I could be 18, then 20, and then married. but now I want to freeze time, right here. make it stop, hold it's breath and let me relish every moment.

I am blessed beyond what I can imagine.
