teens are fast approaching

October 21st, 2008


Look at those two boys. Will has always made his current age seem old. At 2 weeks, I felt like he’d been alive (and awake) for months. At 6 months, he had the speed and agility of a toddler. At 2, he seemed so self-assured and worldly. And now, at 4, when I turned around to ask him a question, and saw him slumped down in his car seat whispering, only to be turned away because, “Mah-aahm, I’m on the phone!” (a tube of paper he fashioned while I was fastening his seatbelt) he seemed 16. At this rate, he’ll be old enough to retire before I am!

They grow up so fast. I’m almost afraid to blink.
