Six


The beautiful boy who first made me a mom is 6. It is for sure a bittersweet feeling. I can still see his baby face when I look at him and at the same time I see the boy...the 6 year old boy...

But, he has refused to kiss me good-bye at school because friends were around. It is happening...and each time he snuggles, cries for me, wants me to tuck him in... I wonder if it's the last time.

hope that what I hear is true and that boys always love their Moms...it is what helps me manage the undeniable truth that he is, in fact, growing up!
