Where has the year gone?

I can't believe that September is nearly over already!  It seems like just last week since I started my casual job at my local quilting/giftware shop.  I swear, the older I get the quicker the years seem to fly by.  I can remember being a child and thinking that the day would never end.  School dragged on for an eternity, the school holidays dragged on forever, and your birthday - or Christmas - just never arrived soon enough.  Now?  I just wish the days would slow down so I can fit more into them!

There was a verse that I remember hearing during my high school years that has recently entrenched itself in my brain...

"the rocking horse days of my childhood are slipping and sliding away..."

I can't remember exactly where I got it from - probably the library? - but, I find this quite apt as I add another year to my tally.
