Sometimes you read a blog and you just connect with the blogger’s words and writing style. That happened when I first visited From Corporate to Domestic. I love what she says and I love how she says it. Natalie is an amazing mom, wonderful blogger and fabulous commenter. I am so glad she is here sharing today.
I could not have been more honored when JDaniel4’s Mom asked me to be featured on her Pause Life for a Moment feature. I always love reading her blog and her Muffin Tin Mondays and all the fun activities she does with her son. I hope to be able to be as creative in the learning department once my son is older. JDaniel is going to be such a smart little boy because of his mommy!
Life is such a precious gift make sure to thoroughly enjoy every minute of it. JDaniel4’s Mom thanks for having me over to reflect back on my “pause moments.”
Please take a moment to go and explore From Corporate to Domestic!
All such beautiful moments! I think I’ve wanted to push pause on every single one of those!
All such important reasons to pause life!
Deirdre thanks so much for letting me sharing my “pause moments!” I had a fun time looking back on those memories.
Aw, lovely post Natalie. Those are such wonderful memories and “pause moments”! 🙂
How lovely to see you here Natalie!
I think it’s great you realized your wonderful pause moments – that stands you in good stead to hold onto to all future happy moments!
I love Natalie, and I’d adore being able to push rewind and go back to those moments and pause, and pause, and pause again. You picked perfect moments to stop and treasure.
Such a beautiful post! There are so many moments I just want to hit pause, too!
Such a wonderful post, Natalie! It made me so happy and sad at the same time. AT least you can still treasure those moments and pretend like you pushed pause, right?
@ Barbara, Lisa, & Kiddothings-I know I wish those moments could stand still and that I could revisit them!
@ Alison-It was fun to reflect on them! Such great times!
@ Blueviolet-Thanks for your kind words! I love you too 🙂
@ Sherri Lynn-I couldn’t agree more!
@ Amanda-I know remembering these moments definitely leave me with mixed emotions of happiness and sadness!
Great post! I really need to take more “pauses”!
Wise words from Natalie. We definitely need to enjoy those moments. They are all too fleeting.
=)
great post Natalie. I can totally relate to every single moment. If only there was a pause button…
These were great pauses! Sometimes I look at my sons’ legs and can’t believe how long they are. I can’t believe they are getting so tall. That’s when I scold myself for still having so many pictures piled on my computer and blank pages in their baby books. 🙁
Yes, it really does go fast. Those are all great pause moments. Love Natalie’s blog
@ Jen I think we all do 🙂
@ Sue thanks so much–time is fleeting!
@ Cam where’s our remote control?
@ Kelley I know it’s just going to get worse as my son gets older!
@ Emmy thanks Emmy–I love your blog too!
very good post! It goes so quickly. I love both of your blogs, so I am glad to see the blogs collaborate together on this post. Great job Natalie!
It all goes so quickly. I sure do wish we could hit the pause button and enjoy it for just a little while longer.
Great post, Natalie!
This posy makes me nostalgic for those early days! 🙂
Natalie, this brought tears to my eyes. I wish we could tell our younger selves to just slow down and savor the moments that we have. I’m starting to do that now. I’ve always been the type to wait for the next thing, but now I want to enjoy where I am.
Such a beautiful post – I can SO relate to all of these different times and how you really do just want to hit “pause!”
@ Melissa thanks for your kind words!
@ Kimberly it goes by WAY too quickly!
@ Jessica it was fun to look back on those times in my life.
@ Rach Aww thanks! I know we are always fast to rush to the next big thing.
@ WM Of course you can relate blog twin 🙂
Those are all moments to press pause for sure. At least you have your blog to record many of the precious moments with your son so you will be able to remember them.
A heartwarming post Natalie. I got teary-eyed reading it. Such beautiful moments.
Oh I wish someone would invent a pause button. It all goes so very fast. So very, very fast!
Fantastic post Natalie.
Such a beautiful post Natalie. There are plenty of those moment that I keep on playing over and over again in my head as well. Also, that’s why I take so many pictures. For pause moments like that 🙂
very touching moments indeed. wouldn’t it be nice to have that pause button for all of them.
Beautiful post Natalie! I miss those college days too and always told my high schoolers that college is the best time! Of course, mommyhood now ranks right up there, but there’s nothing like college!
Beautiful post!
