nine.
around here is feels like the beginning of growing up
changing teachers for subjects in school
starting to play an instrument
first choral concerts
travel sports
arranging his own play dates
sleepovers
he’s always been more independent than my oldest
more opinionated
more sure
more stubborn
more self initiated
i think that makes him seem older
it’s hard to imagine that his ‘time at home’ is half over
i’m sure that the remaining time will be nothing if not adventerous
i’m looking forward to watching it unfold
