I wish I could package up the little magic moments in life and hold on to them forever. Children grow up fast I've been told. Tonight Emily leaped into my arms and and wrapped her tiny body around me like a monkey. I relished in it. When I came home from work and they ran to greet me at the door with hugs and kisses, I basked in the warmth of it. Courtney snuggled up in my lap and tickled my cheek with your little blond curls. I clung to it. But, try as I might, I can't capture it. These "magic moments" are fleeting. Perhaps that's so there'll always be room for more.
