My baby. He’s 5 today!
It’s so curious how the memories of his delivery and birth are so vivid that it seems like he was born only a year or two ago, and yet in other ways it seems like he’s been around for ever. I can’t imagine how life even was before he joined our family at 12:42 am weighing a whopping 10 lbs 5 oz! He’s always been such a cuddly, huggy, soft-hearted sweet little guy…right from day one. He still starts every day by climbing into my bed, and wrapping his soft, warm arms around my neck and saying “Good morning, Mommy! I love you!” I cherish it. Fast forward 5 years (if all’s well), and it probably, sadly, won’t happen anymore – too often anyway. Right about now is where I’d like to push the “pause” button on my life.
I love you, my babies, to Pluto and back.
Liam graduated from preschool this evening. Can you believe I actually felt choked and teary up when they walked in with their hats on to that grad song? I had to tell myself “get ahold of yourself…it’s only preschool!” So cute, all those kids…more of that a different day. I’m for bed.
