Before They’re Gone

January 26, 2016 by candicebeckwith Leave a Comment

Recently I was reading about a book called, “Before They’re Gone—A Family’s Year-Long Quest to Explore America’s Most Endangered National Parks”. This is what I thought the book was about: I thought it was about a family who took a year off seeing a bunch of national parks before their children grew up and left home. I thought it was a wonderful idea and wished we could cherish our time together in such a way before Sam leaves in just 3 1/2 short years. Ironically, the “They’re” they’re talking about is not their children, but the national parks.

Speaking of lost childhood…

A few days ago I picked up Anna from a playgroup with four other kindergarten girls and asked her how her time was. She said it was great! Then I asked her what she talked about. Her reply, “ISIS”.
