This is the LO I finally finished for the April BOM challenge. Topic: If you had only ONE WISH, what would it be?

Journaling:

it seems like it passes without me even realizing it. One day I was falling in love with my first
born daughter and the next day my son was turning two. If I had only one wish it would be to slow down the passage of time. I wouldn’t want to stop it altogether, but I’d give anything to slow it down to a crawl. It was twelve years ago that my first daughter was born and I still have the most difficult time wrapping my brain around that fact that she is getting ready to start middle school. I just recently realized that two-thirds of the
time she will spend living in our home is over. Gone in a moment. I feel like I’ve missed so much. There are so many things I would do differently if I could. Since Caitlyn was born, I’ve had Claire and Garrett and they are growing up so fast that I can’t keep up with them. I feel like a hamster on an exercise wheel. The world keeps spinning around me, but I’m not getting anywhere. I want to savor every moment I have with them. I want to remember every tiny detail of the conversations we’ve had and remember the sound of their giggles when they were toddlers. I long for the clock hands to move a little more slowly so I can have just a few more minutes in each day with them. I wouldn’t want time to freeze (although it would be nice for a while) because I am looking forward to the journeys the Lord has planned for each of my children. I want to experience those journeys with them and feel the joy that will come with each of their accomplishments and successes. I want to be there to hold them if their feelings are hurt or their spirits are wounded. I want to experience all the emotions that come with being a parent. But if I had one wish, I would wish for time to slow down.
