I have been thinking a lot about when Andrew and I first met lately. I remember our first kiss, the first time I met his friends, our first trip together and so on. Of course I think of those moments and a huge smile comes to my face, we have had so many wonderful moments in the 4.5 years we have known each other! It is when I think of those times that I suddenly realize we have gotten to “busy” to even stop and savor the moments.

We have been meaning to get out the telescope and look at the stars, we have mentioned getting together with friends for a nice meal and we have even discussed cooking dinner together or maybe even getting the laundry done. With work, building the new house and family we have little time left for friends and even each other. As I sit in the family room, I look around and see piles of papers that I desperately need to go through, boxes that need to be moved to the garage and my new bubble bath from Sephora sitting on the end table. Which makes me wonder why I spent $16 for the newest Philosophy bubble bath anyway- when will I have time for a bubble bath?

I am hoping that once we are in the new house our schedules will balance out and we will get back into the routine of life. Still somewhat busy, but more focused on the important things in life – like capturing the moments and making them memories to smile about.
