Today I registered Isaac for kindergarten. After miles of paperwork and a few deep breaths I still stand slightly overwhelmed. Where did the 5 years go? I remember when he was a baby thinking that I had time. All of this time to instill all of the things I want him to know. Here we are 5 years later and I feel like even though I have more time obviously I still haven't done my absolute best with the time I've already had. Now I'm not beating myself up... just kind of a reality check about being intentional with everyday. In The Message bible, Hebrews 12:12 says... "Don't sit around on you hands! No more dragging your feet! Clear the path for long-distance runners so no one will trip and fall, so no one will step in a hole and sprain an ankle. Help each other out. And run for it!" My dreams for Isaac are so great and I know to teach him to be his best I have to be my best.
