{just me::}

I haven’t shared anything personal…like say..since I launched my new blog.  I have been so crazy busy and I am so grateful for my clients/friends:)  I just thought maybe I would share a bit of what has been going on at the Braman Household lately…

Well….both of my babes are in school this year. My little Charlie B. is  in young fives and attends preschool 3 full days a week.  He is loving every minute of it and asks EVERY day if he has school today?  I love it!  He barely kisses me goodbye once we enter the school doors and he is growing up WAY TOO FAST!  I would like to bottle up his loving, tender~hearted innocence and keep my little boy at 4 yrs. old forever!  I thought the same thing about Jack.  I am smiling while writing this because if I could have done that I would not know the sweet boy Jack has become today.  He is 9 yrs. old and becoming a little version of his daddy.  He is still very sweet and loving and yet, it is much different than Charlie’s sweet and loving.  Each stage is new and exciting and although I am sad to watch them grow, in the same breath I am excited to watch them grow.  🙂

I guess I am just having a mama night and thinking about my boys. It is all stemming from the fact that Charlie is turning 5yr.s this month.  There is something about that age that is making realize that life is flying by!  There are days that I wish time would stand still~because I am not ready to let go even for a minute.  I feel as though I get busy and rush through the day and lately I have been trying to remind myself to slow down…enjoy the moments…really listen and enjoy my boys!  I love them from the depths of my soul and would do anything for them.  I jokingly ask Charlie if he is going to live with me forever…and of course he says YES!!  I mean, where else would he go, right?! haha   Jack used to tell me the same thing, now he says he will be at U of M.  🙂

So, I am going to kiss my boys as they sleep just because I can…give your babes an extra squeeze today…just because you can.

night.

blessings,
