No more Bento
Time goes by so fast when raising children. We spend so much time and energy trying to get them from stage to stage, watching them grow, surprised when we realize that it`s almost ready for the next stage. Anna has been going to preschool for three years and it will be just a few more months until she moves on to the next stage.
This last Friday was the last day we will make lunch for her this year. It`s just one of those reminders about the everyday things you do, the routines you have with your children will come to an end. It`s a relief but also brings the feeling of sadness. Our sense of time as parents and their sense of time as children is different, but we both are experiencing these events together going through aches and pains together. I think that is one of the most important words of family life "together."

So true! I really can't believe how fast my daughter is going and passing through phases. It's sad and wonderful at the same time.
