Moments

oh boy!
I got a good one today!

Apparently my eldest daughter was unwell last night, so I jokingly, because school has been out for a month now, said "Well then I guess you don't get to go to school today."

Her Nostrils flared, her lips pursed, her eyes narrowed and she said "I don't HAVE to".

I want to make clear here that she was not "sassing" me, she was referring to the fact that school was out, and honestly she was quite cute. REALLY. And My wife and I laughed.

Sometimes it seems that they grow up altogether too fast. but then there are the moments when you can "live forever" in the moment.

I am a true fan of Science Fiction!
I love Star Wars and, oddly, Star Trek.
I say Oddly because usually star wars fans and star trek fans are at loggerheads so it is rare to find one person who enjoys both as much as I do.

But I digress...

One of my favorite Star Trek movies is Insurrection.
In this movie there is a point where Captain Picard and his current "female person of interest" share a moment which is really cool.

And everything around them slows down.

I often find myself wishing that I could do that. but it is moments like the one this morning that come the closest for me.
In those moments we establish the memories which we can relive over again at our leisure.
And sometimes that is enough.

live, laugh, love, and learn!
