It feels like time is flying by, slipping past me no matter how hard I try to hold on to it. Some days, it feels unfair how quietly the years pass. I love being with my kids. I love watching them grow, noticing how their habits change, how their voices deepen, how their thoughts become more complex. I love seeing pieces of myself and Arhaan in them, sometimes in ways that make me smile and sometimes in ways that make me pause and stare a little longer. But they are growing up so fast. Too fast. And no matter how prepared I think I am, my heart never really is.
