All too fast

It seems as though it has been just a few years since I held my first son in my arms—certainly not nine years!

Yet, hasn’t he been with me forever? I hardly remember our family without him.

I just love this picture of him getting a drink {all by himself} when he was thirsty--

as we disembarked at the end of the cruise, Weston held on to my hand and said with full emotion, “I’m gonna miss that old cruise ship!”
