An Unexpected Special Moment
I have 2 boys……..7 and 3 1/2. And they are growing so fast.
Lately, I have been trying to pay closer attention to some of the things they do, things they say, moments that we have together. Almost like mental snapshots so that I can remember those things when they are older.
This morning I had an unexpected special moment with my 3 1/2 year old.
He and I woke up before my wife and our older son. Nothing unusual about that. But today, instead of tuning into a cartoon or playing with his toys, he just sat in the bathroom with me while I got ready for work.
Here are a few things he said…..
Daddy, look how big I am. (as he stared at himself in the mirror)
Daddy, why did you grow faster than me?
Daddy, I want to go to your work with you.
Notes to self….He is watching me. He wants to be like me. He wants to know that I am proud of him.

He says the funniest things. If I ever need to laugh, all I need to do is call him.
