Now We Are Six ...

When I was one,
I had just begun.
When I was two,
I was nearly new.
When I was three,
I was hardly me.
When I was four,
I was not much more.
When I was five,
I was just alive.
But now I am six,
I'm as clever as clever.
So I think I'll be six
now and forever.

(A.A. Milne)

Dear friends, it was six years ago today that I started this blog!

And I know it's cliche to say this, but honestly, how time has flown. I had such fun going back through my archives to find a link for each number above. I am most amazed by how quickly my boys have grown!

When I started By Sun and Candlelight I had no idea what I was doing, but I figured I'd just have fun with it and see if it "took." I found I enjoyed the writing and the photography and the creative aspects of blogging very much ... but my main goal has always been to use this blog as a "virtual" family scrapbook. And looking back over six years' worth of memories, I'm so glad I've done this. I never would have written down all those little things that you think you'll remember, but never really do ...

All those little things that at the time seem so little, but in hindsight are really ...

What It's All About.

 So today I look forward to another year of blogging ... another year of catching memories where they fall and making time to enjoy it all. :) And I sincerely thank each and every one of you who has joined me on this journey ... for the time you spend reading and the comments you leave, your kindness and encouragement ...

I appreciate you all so very much.

❤

Have a great Thursday, my friends ... I'll see you here again sometime soon!
