fleeting

That was what the sun's appearance was this afternoon - a slow blink and your would have missed it. But not Sienna who along with her friend Jamie managed to make sure they got the most out of it by a paddle and a run around in the water sprinkler.

Fleeting I guess is also what childhood (life is?) as a neighbour reminded me when she stopped to chat as she watched the girls giggle and shriek in the water. "Oh" she said "such a beautiful sight, makes me long for the time when my girls were small."

As a Mother, I understand her feelings but isn't it lovely that our lives are made up of such moments and memories like these?
