If Only Life Came With A Remote Control

posted by ninahelleny in DAILY DIARY
Since becoming a mother, I often find myself wishing I could "pause" time. Moments when Jack crawls up on the couch and snuggles up next to me. Or when I walk into his room in the morning and he smiles at me like I'm his hero. Oh, my heart.It's amazing how quickly your wishes can change. I spent the majority of my twenties wishing I could "fast forward" through life. I felt that so much was missing. Don't get me wrong I had a lot of fun along the way but at the end of each day I always felt a little sad.

And then the dreaded phrase of advice every single girl hates to hear "it will happen when you least expect it" happened. It actually happened. Now my life is full of so much love, happiness, joy, fun, laughter, the list is endless really. But now I will spend the rest of my life wishing I could press "pause" more often than not and wishing the "fast forward" button would literally fall off the remote... the remote control of life.
