hard to believe

(sam at age 16 months at the "ABC park")

today i had my boys at the park.

my mind was drawn to a park day with sam before he was even 2.

will wasn't even born.

i remember looking at sam not even being able to climb up the stairs.

i couldn't imagine him ever being big enough to master a playground.

i found myself today in disbelief as he was swinging from the monkey bars,

and will was born and climbing the slide,

and maggie is here, too.

i know she will have it all mastered, too, before i even know it.

it really feels as if it all changes with the blink of an eye;

i'm trying hard to not blink.

i don't want to miss a thing.
