Dear time, please slow down. 8/23/2010

I thought sending Koda off to first grade meant that my baby was no longer a baby, but last night after Coop lost his first tooth, it was confirmed that my baby is now a boy. I'm sure people would say obviously, he has been a "boy" for years now, but not in my eyes. He gave me a Koda Bear hug after school the other day, and as I held him tight I swear he smelled just like he did as a baby. It took me back, then I was knocked back into reality as Jdog told me it won't be long before he will have his license. Ugh. Some days I love how big they are getting, watching them turn into little people, with big dreams and ideas. Other days I want to lock them up and never let them out of my sight.
