to my son

May 20, 2012 § Leave a comment

Thank you for your easy company. I forget sometimes to set aside my worries and teaching moments for simpler moments of shared time. While your father and sister embarked on an outdoor adventure, we settled into lazy, directionless time together and the conversation skills I normally practice with you unfolded easily. The sound of your laughter and your sharp wit were a happy soundtrack to our errands and meals together. You are ever the little boy who used to toddle along beside me, but now your form stretches near my height and your gait falls comfortably in my company. There are no photographs to capture our laughter and no extravagant plans to recall this time. Just a moment’s reflection with a full heart. I loved you from the very beginning, but liking who you are is an endless blessing. Love, Mom
