Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop 60

January 26, 2014 by Carrie

Lately it seems God is really reminding me that this time with my kids will fly by.  I need to appreciate the daily ups and downs of mothering active, funny and spunky kids.

One quote has really put things into the right perspective for me.

“The days are long but the years are short” -Gretchen Rubin.

Whoa.  That is totally true!

So I made some artwork to help remind me.  I’m sharing it with you guys as a Winter Printable!

The Days Are Long But The Years Are Short {Free Printables!}
