Time

As I wait for gluten-free espresso brownies to cool before cutting them for staff lunch tomorrow, I’m sitting here talking to our son who drove in from college last night. He brought his vocal music home, so we played through a few songs in preparation for hosting Piano Club at our home; he agreed to sing. We are trying to spend as much time together as possible since he’s in town for only two weeks before heading overseas for an internship and semester abroad. Where did this time go? I tried to be aware of how quickly time passes when our children were younger, but it didn’t become real for us until they left home. Now I feel “older and wiser,” and I try to cherish each moment. Time with loved ones is a treasure.
