I came into the kitchen to find him taking canned goods off the pantry shelves, apparently [as he explained to me when asked what he was doing] they were good fit to climb on and become a folded battle droid.

Boyhood
I watched him play and swim and bounce at a party this weekend and I saw it - the "boy" in him.
He is wise, and funny, and bright, and sensitive and ready to play Knights-in-Shining Armour or another rite of passage boyhood game in a heartbeat.
[And sometimes he's just plain fearless.]
He is all boy now.
No more Baby, no more Toddler.
My Boy.
Check out more BSM.

a boy + a camera + one remote shutter release =
A thrilling discovery.
Once he realized he could make it "click" by himself, he went to town.
After viewing a good twenty or so of these I was in hysterics! And that tongue sticking out...oh that was just the beginning!
Apparently, he finally had enough and finished off with a bang.
And may I add, like Tracey, these are SOOC.
Happy Best Shot Monday and SOOC Saturday!

A Milestone
10 years ago this month I made a decision that would change my life forever. I said "yes".
Yes to becoming a wife.
Yes to becoming a mother.
Yes to becoming a family.
Being a step-parent is not always an easy task. It's often painful and lonely in a dance of mixed emotions from all parties; non of us perfect, all of us trying to figure out the best way to maneuver through these new steps. But the rewards can be great and love always grows in a well-nurtured garden.
That day I said "yes", I already knew in my heart that I wanted to be there for Big Brother; I didn't want to live my life without him as much as I didn't want to live my life without the Guy I Dig. I loved this little boy and I wanted to see him through his life adventure, through graduation, marriage and his own family someday...
Yesterday I sat in the stands with his dad, his mom and close friends and watched this boy graduate from High School. Taking his first step into adulthood; and I felt the great joy of being a part of his life.
I am so proud of him.
Wasn't it only yesterday that I thought to myself, "I want to be there when he graduates"?
He was grafted into my heart long ago - how lucky I am to be a part of his life.
...And to be a part of his dad's life.
An amazing journey for us all.
But for Big Brother, as we let him go to take flight,
The journey is just beginning.
Thank you, Sean, for making me a better person.
I love you.
