Ok, so it is still very early April and I need to remember that it's still pretty chilly. I had all the hope that it would feel like 72 degrees outside. But I did bring Lucas extra layers so we were ok.
We chatted about the cars, trucks and puppies on our way down while I got chillier. The market was packed, but it was fine because we spent most of our time climbing on hay bales. Lucas thought that was just fantastic. Plus, it was soft when his jump attempts failed.
Tonight, after Lucas fell asleep, I looked at pictures of him from about this time last year. I've been feeling pretty sad lately about how fast this all goes. I mean, it's just a blink and it's gone, almost like a cruel joke! So I am always attempting to remind myself to take each moment and savor it. But I don't want to be that person who never comes out from behind the camera either.
My hope and goal is to enjoy my little guy right where he is and try really hard not to think about how much I miss yesterdays or how fast tomorrow will get here. But I'm not very good at it yet and just get all weepy. As Elisha would say, "Turtle in a cage."
When I look at Lucas I still see that cute cubby baby with the baseball hat!!
