enthusiastically skipped up the road to the bus stop for first time.

Just the other day I was pushing a grocery cart out to the van
and he sat in the seat smiling up at me and we sang silly songs

blinked and looked up and heard him
talking about plans for his 10th birthday.

| First day of 4th grade |
Just the other day I was
nuzzling his sweet smellin' newborn baby head and giving Thanks to God
for the opportunity to be a mama to a third boy.
Then I blinked and saw
him glancing over his shoulder at me after trying on his new backpack
for kindergarten
