Time

The entire family, gathered in the family room.
Mom, Dad, and I with mugs of hot coffee.
Anam and Zain with chocolate milk and bendy straws.
Watching The Lion King.
Laughing.
Smiling.
Content.

I want to freeze this moment.
This scene out of a holiday-movie ending.

But I can't.
It's already gone.

Time moves on.
Leaving each second different from the last.
Leaving me feeling helpless.

So.
Helpless.

:(


the only solution (if you can call it a solution) is to videotape as much as you can

... i mean an INSANE amount of footage

because when you get older, you'll have all those moments to remember

make home movies to make sure you don't forget...
