Five.


Going on fifteen.

He and I slipped out for a date the other morning. I asked him if we could take pictures while we were out, and he was more than willing, especially with the promise of a milkshake to follow.

I wanted to capture his maturity...

He is going to kindergarten this fall.

He is ready. I am not. I believe we've discussed this already.

I am going to miss him like crazy.

But he is going to love school and he is going to grow even more in maturity, composure, thoughtfulness, and sweetness. And I will love him all the more for his new independence.

Thankfully I still have one baby at home!
