Cats In The Cradle....


I worked at my store today and then afterwards, played computer games with Little Rita for awhile, but it wasnt long before I was nodding off on the couch. I decided to go take a short nap. It was very short...like 20 minutes, because I wanted to hang out with my daughter some more. Ok, nap over, so I open my bedroom door, step out, and she's there, all ready to go out, and then with a big kiss and a hug, said, "bye mom, I'm going to Mollys."
But, but, but.....
Then off she went, all happy.
Cats in the cradle and the silver spoon, little boy blue and the man in the moon....

Well, that's kids for you! But don't worry - at our age we need a power nap every now and again :-)

My MIL calls it a power nap - hope it charged your batteries!

Ohh that song - always a reminder ... I want to be like you dad - then he grew up and became - time pass so fast and you can't save time in a bottle!

Awwwa, cute lil Rita going off to play with Molly right as you were waking up, just figures, huh?
I guess we both have more of that to look forward to as our kids are teens, sniff sniff

OK, also that song always makes me think of this song...

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that Id like to do
Is to save every day
Till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
Id save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
Ive looked around enough to know
That youre the one I want to go
Through time with...
