Promise me you will always remember that you are stronger than you seem, smarter than you think, and loved more than you ever imagined.

In a blink of an eye





So, the other night I put my kids down stairs for a video I had promised them, and I came up to blog for a few minutes. Then I hear Jake clomping up the stairs, I holler out at him to come to me, and he says I can't mom I'm goin' to school. I walked to the hall and looked down at him and almost started to cry. What happened to the little boy he used to be? It seems like he has just got big so fast. He isn't the little cuddly Jake anymore, but the big kid Jake who is getting ready for another year of school, which by the way he is stoked about. He is looking forward to making new friends, riding the bug, and learning. Anyway, I just don't know that I am ready for him to all of a sudden be a real big kid. I know I have told him I don't want him to be a baby anymore, but what ever happened to the in between stage?
