How can I miss someone so much who is sitting behind me eating his breakfast?
Every day I love my little man even more, and I love seeing him grow into himself, as he blossoms nearly minute by minute.
Today, I miss the 2-year-old. Next year I'll miss the 3-year-old. I guess that is parenthood — a wonderful, longing journey.
