One Thousand Days Old

Trey Davey and Benji were born on December 5, 2007 at 10:12 and 10:13 a.m. About 10:30 a.m. that morning they turned 1,000 seconds old, and about 3:00 a.m. the next morning they became 1,000 minutes old. Forty two days later on January 15, 2008 they became 1,000 hours old. Each of those century marks were important milestones and provide a perspective of relativity. Age is a number and hopefully a maturity measuring stick. Just as they’ve done, we should strive to continually grow intellectually with each passing moment and make each opportunity count. Today, in almost their 33rd month, the boys are turning 1,000 days old. They’ll be 19 years olds and enjoying college Freshman Spring Break when they turn 1,000 weeks old, and hopefully, they’ll be sipping cool water on a beautiful spring day in their 83ed year when they turn 1,000 months old.
