Comments on: Then and Now http://callapidderdays.com/2008/07/then-and-now.html a random mix of faith, family, and the many things that fill my mind Wed, 01 Feb 2012 23:29:55 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Bookfool http://callapidderdays.com/2008/07/then-and-now.html#comment-9844 Bookfool Tue, 22 Jul 2008 22:04:00 +0000 http://callapidderdays.wordpress.com/2008/07/22/then-and-now/#comment-9844 It goes way too fast. My eldest is now out on his own, earning money and buying furniture. My youngest is working as a lifeguard and about to start his junior year in high school. And, I'm floundering around thinking, "What the heck happened to my babies?? I'm going to have to get a life, now!" Oh, yeah, and the cat hasn't changed a bit, except for the fact that now she's an "only" cat, which makes her a lot more relaxed (the other kitty liked jumping on her and sinking claws into her belly).

Of course, since I don't have any two legged kids I end up taking tons of pictures of my four legged kids. :) Just download some this morning and I told myself I would print them out when we got back from vacation...I might actually have people in those pictures!<br/><br/>Wow, you wouldn't think four years would make such a difference, huh? He's a handsome boy. :)<br/><br/>And I think you cat is too cute. :) I’m the same with pictures…I take tons of them but don’t print them.

I take and load endless photos, but I never print them and I have a feeling I'm going to regret that someday. Actually, my challenge seems to be having both the ink cartridges my photo printer needs at the same time. Seems like one is always empty. Sigh.<br/><br/>What a difference four years makes! He's one handsome boy.<br/><br/>I love cats, but judging by the look on your cats face in this photo, I think I'd keep my distance. LOL I do exactly the same thing, Katrina.

They grow up so fast... Great pictures!<br/><br/>I'm like you - great about taking photos but oh so bad about getting them printed out and put in an album or scrapbook. I used to scrapbook, that was before I discovered blogging. None since. I am still hanging on to all of my supplies though (read: clutter) in hopes that one day I will get back on it and scrap some of our photos and memories. Sigh. We'll see!<br/><br/>Have a great day!

The little boy look is going. But just wait, in a few years when he has grown you;ll miss this little boy too! My boys are now 22 and 23, and I miss those boyhood years. Enjoy! Keep taking those pictures, doesn't matter if you print them out, just back up your files so they don't get lost!<br/>GinnyBerry I can see how he has changed. The little boy look is going.
