let them be little.....


Sunday morning we had an opportunity to just do nothing.  Jeremy went to golf early, and we just hung out in our pajamas, made biscuits, and sat at the table.  Kirk was acting crazy, and I snapped a picture.  I decided I wanted to remember that moment, just like that.  Him in his pajamas, eating a biscuit and fruit, me with my coffee and a smile on my face.  He's growing up too fast.  I want him to always love spending time with his Mama.  I will always love spending time with him.

I am writing this post on the eve of Kirk's kindergarten registration day (tomorrow).  I have shed a few tears gathering up our paperwork for tomorrow.  How is it possible that this day is already here?  I don't feel any older, how did he get so OLD?  I feel like I was just holding a little baby in my arms....and now he barely fits in my lap.  I am not ready for him to grow up.  I'm just not.  He makes me laugh harder, smile bigger, and annoys me more than I ever thought anyone would.  He has my heart, every minute of every day.  I will try to hold back my tears tomorrow as I watch him walk down that hallway.  I will try to share his excitement.  I will TRY to look at those kindergarten teachers and begin to trust them with my most precious possession. I know I'm going to hold him a little tighter tomorrow and for the days to come.
