Driving to school today, I became a little melancholic. Dan asked me last night if I remembered Henry crawling. I don't really, he only crawled for about two months. I feel like all of my memories are falling out of my head. It seems like I don't have enough space in my mind to capture and remember every detail of Henry. He is just going up so fast and it seems like I can't even get a grip on what happened yesterday let alone a year ago. Maybe it's because babes just grow up so fast...I don't like it.
One of my favorite movies is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
{I have the edited version if anyone wants to see it.}
I was reminded of this movie this morning.
Joel {the main character} is purposefully erasing his memories, when he realizes that's not what he wants to do. So then he starts chasing after his memories, trying to grasp them, and remember them before they are gone forever.
That's how I feel.
Constantly chasing these memories.
And I can't grasp them all
before
they
disappear.

OH! I would like to see it.
That's exactly how I feel! It's frustrating and sad!
