He Grew up Overnight

My toddler aged years overnight. He was tiny when I left. A little boy when I came home.

I keep studying him, stealing kisses and hugs, trying to stop time.

It’s not working though. Because my older two look like teenagers now.

And in the question of why did post-partum Kate cry about today…while doing dishes?

Sawyer told me that two of his neighborhood friends are in his older brother Cooper’s general Ed classroom, which he visits throughout the day.

And they told Sawyer that his older brother is cool and funny. Like really funny. And Sawyer beamed with pride when he told me.

That did me in.

Raising these tiny humans is a wild ride I tell ya.
