Recently, we were at a family gathering with our two-year-old cousin. It was such fun watching her and my children play and interact with each other. Max and Amaya were helping her put together a wooden puzzle and playing with stuffed animals. It instantly transported me back to when my kids were that age. It suddenly felt like it was so long ago. The old saying is true, “The days are long, but the years are short.” Time sure goes by too quickly.
