While we still can

Children will not be with us forever. As they grow up, they’ll increasingly be independent, the way they all should be.
And so as weeks, months and years pass by, our time with them and the opportunity to teach and influence them will gradually become less and less too.
If we’re entrusted with little ones right now, then our time is now. The time before they venture out and learn (all things good and bad) from friends, teachers and the world, without us by their side.
And so while we still can, let us all learn to treasure our limited moments spent with our little ones.
Loving. Holding. Teaching. Bonding.
Yes, while we still can.

Nice picture and post, I really give 2 thumb up for every full time mother who handle their children by herself without any help from any servant, it is more tired then work at the office.
