Remembering...

I remember when he was so little that he fit right across my chest...

I remember my mom teaching him how to smell flowers...

I remember when we had to have "naked time" every night...

I remember trips to the ER for head injuries...

I remember him graduating from kindergarten...

I remember him riding his bike for the first time...

I remember the first time he played football, basketball, soccer...

I remember sitting through hours of practices and games thinking "what if something happens and I'm not here?"...

I remember letting him go to school with a mohawk for 1 day...

I remember when we surprised him (and his sister) with a trip to Disney...

I remember when he cooked me his first steak....

I remember when he first mowed the lawn...then proceeded to break the lawnmower...

I remember when he grew as tall as me...then outgrew me...

Now I add the memory of watching him walk out of Middle School....and into High School...

Although time flies in the blink of an eye, I cherish every moment I have with my son!
