It's my son's fourth birthday today. He is so excited. He asked me this morning how he suddenly became four and when exactly did he turn four (when he went to sleep last night?). In any case, he literally has been waiting four years for this day to come, as he is desperately trying to catch up to his older brother, who is now six! The picture, above, (which is not of me or my son, though I wish her blouse was mine!) reminds me that while I can still carry and hold my little boy in my arms, he is no longer the little boy he was just a year ago, but he will always be my baby! Sorry for being sappy!
