child growing up

Could you stay this little, for just one more minute?

Could you call me "Mama" instead of "Mom" for just one more minute?

Am I ready for my little boy to grow up? Not yet—but we will figure it out together

I will continue to cheer at each milestone we hit—when he learns to tie his shoes, when he masters how to make breakfast, when he starts to sleep in instead of waking up, begging us to play.
