Time goes so Fast

Well everyone, it's official. My baby is in grade one!! First few days have gone smoothly....and she has become a teenager overnight... she still loves to snuggle though so I am thankful for that. I started ethics and anatomy, both online, last week. I am enjoying them both although I feel that ALOT of memorization is in my near future....I know quite well the difference between pulmonary and respiratory  systems now, as well as the major difference between ethics and morals and how we develop and shape these. I still haven't heard from BCIT but I did run into an old customer at the Rusty Gull tonight who, to make a long story short, might be able to put in a good word.....the things people say when they have had a couple drinks though....can't really take that too seriously. I have a good feeling. All I can do is wait and enjoy the experience of possibility. I may not know my future for certain, but that might be what keeps me going. A maybe is always better than a no. Tomorrow (or today I guess) is Monday. Time to start another week. Time to hit the gym and the books...and the salad :)

My little angel lost her first tooth tonight. I'm sad that I couldn't be there but with the way it was just hanging on, I knew it couldn't last. Time goes so fast. This is something that I am learning as I go along. The speed of time is not measured in seconds, but in moments, in memories. It's the moments that keep zipping by, the memories that fade. The seconds will tick and the hours pass, but those measurements can only be validated by the moments that fill them. It seems no matter how hard I try to breath in the beauty of the world, things are just zipping by. I am a Mother, to a grade one girl who is missing one tooth.......and yet just yesterday she was learning to walk. Where does it go? Time....And while my baby seems to be growing at the speed of light, when it comes to my career moving forward and the application process for school, time seems to be standing still.

I love hiking. I really didn't do much of it until the last couple of years, but I love it so much. Especially in Vancouver. I guess it's time to hit the grind again tomorrow. For now, I must sleep. It's late and I'm tired. I have a lunch date with a very special little lady tomorrow. Talk to you soon
