I know that kids grow up in the blink of an eye. I see these kids every week and know they are getting bigger, but I didn’t realize just how much they have grown up until last night. Tade, while still a baby, is no longer looking just like a baby. I cannot believe he is going to be 1 in a month. And then there is Lena, in the last year, she has blossomed into a little girl, a very funny one at that! Hazel gets more beautiful as time goes by. She may only be 5.5, but it is crazy to think that I first meet her when she was a little younger than Lena is now.

I usually try not to bring my camera to dinner, because it is harder for me to focus on helping out with the kids. However, last night, I had a nagging feeling telling me to bring my camera. I am very happy I did, because the evening involved strawberries, bubbles, and popsicles. 🙂

A little over three years ago, I took my first photograph of the the Hurleys. Lena was only two weeks old. It really doesn’t feel like three years has gone by.
