Reminiscing
I can’t believe my son is in first grade already! All that stuff other parents say about enjoying these early years because it goes by so fast is absolutely true. I mean, I can still remember bringing him home from the hospital for the first time all those years ago, the early-morning feedings, his first tooth, learning to walk, outgrowing all his baby clothes and other things like that. It seems impossible to me that my boy is now in elementary school!
I’ve definitely been bitten by the nostalgia bug recently, and have been taking tons of pictures and home videos in an effort to hold onto these childhood days as long as possible. It’s hard to imagine my sweet, happy-go-lucky little guy turning into a sullen, withdrawn teenager someday, but I know that’s just as inevitable as all these other milestones. At least I have about 10 more years of good times before that happens!!
