"8"

I've been thinking about the number 8 alot lately..

I can't remember the last time I had 8 hours of good sleep

I work 8 hours a day...for what seems like 8 days of a week..although I know there are only 7

I have 8 grandkids!

{and hope that number goes up one day}

Noah is 8 years old

You were 8 years old once too

{I'm sorry I permed your hair..obviously it was the 80's}

Mostly I can't believe it's been 8 years

since we've heard your laughter

or looked into those big brown eyes

You are missed more than you know..

but 8 years melts away

when I look at this freckle faced girl

I can remember like yesterday..

then I look at this handsome young boy

and it reminds me..

that 8 is just a number

and memories are what count
