Life Moves Pretty Fast
The first day of Kindergarten for Maggie was literally last week. I remember holding her hand, so uncertain of what lay ahead of her and telling her she could do anything.
And just a few days ago I penned this sentimental moment chronicling the end of Elementary School and the start of Middle School.
So how is it today we just completed registering her for her first year in High School? Yeah, I don't know either, but it happened. And just like that we are about to close one book and open another. I'm all at once proud, excited and melancholy and am reminded of the great words from a very wise (albeit fictional) young man.....
Couldn't have said it better....
There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle, or the mirror that reflects it. (Edith Wharton)
***Life is a banquet... and most poor suckers are starving to death. Live... live..... LIVE!!!!! (Auntie Mame)
***Your life is an occasion. Rise to it. (Edward Magorium
Toy impresario, wonder aficionado, avid shoe-wearer)
***A woman is like a tea bag. You never know how strong she is until she is in hot water. (Eleanor Roosevelt)
***Be not afraid of growing slowly. Be afraid of standing still. (Chinese proverb)
