Time flys when you're having fun

Twenty seven years ago on Memorial Day, we had a family picnic at a large local park with grandparents, kids and grandkids. It was the day that the oldest granddaughter in the family took her first steps.

Fast forward to Memorial Day, 2009, same park, same family. We had a family picnic with grandparents, kids and grandkids. Now that oldest granddaughter is a mother with two children. Several of the grandkids at the family picnic twenty seven years ago are married. Twenty seven years ago, some of the grandkids at yesterday's picnic weren't even born.

And twenty seven years ago, I was one of the kids. Yesterday, I was one of the grandparents.

Where did the time go?
