when we were young

Today its Flash back friday over at cafe bebe and I went with a not so distant flashback this week.
The photo is off my children Matthew and Natalie. Not sure when it was taken but they were in their late teens. Its so funny and they look so happy. I can't believe they are 30 and 25 this year! time has slipped past with a whisper and they are not little anymore. My mother used to say "enjoy them ! they are not babies long" when I was moaning about lost sleep or endless bottom changes. Oh how right her words were and how true now they have grown up. Im very lucky I am close to both of them and they are still very much part of my life. So if you are reading this Matthew and Natalie , you will always be my babies and mum loves you with all her heart.
