Cherish the moments

  Last night was Catholic High's homecoming. It was a great night and the Rockets won which topped off the evening. I took a few photos:

 The pics above are my very handsome stepson in his dress whites for JROTC.  In the above picture he is the one in the middle. Now, I was fretting last night because I could not get any closer and my pictures were blurry. But, then I put things in perspective. I was there last night with my hubby and friends and have my memories and those I cannot erase and they are not blurry. I remember how awesome JROTC looked marching out on the field. I remember seeing Rader for the first time on the field in his dress whites. I remember seeing hubby's face last night as I glanced over and saw the proud dad look on his face. I remember Rader coming up in the stands after, so excited about what he had just done and sharing those memories with his dad and I. Those things I cannot photograph. I have mentioned so many times before that I cherish getting to be a part of these experiences with the kids. I loved watching Jake interact with his friends at the game last night and saying hi and meeting some new ones. I loved watching princess and her friend hang out with the freshmen boys from Catholic and getting her first steps into high school. And I loved coming home and hashing out the night with all the kids in the kitchen while eating a late night snack. Those moments I do not want to miss. Those are the moments I cherish. 

Hugs!
