Last week, I dropped the Peanut off at his usual spot (for school). And as usual, I watched him walk as far as I could see and then I drove home wondering how he got so big already.

But Thursday was different.
As I was watching him walk away, he stopped, bent down, and hollered at me. I rolled down the window and he came running back.
He found this year's first weed dandelion. And it was for me.
(Peanut... YOU ARE THE BESTEST!)
And I... smiled all the way home.

Awww how sweet!
You're making me cry!
My son had his senior portraits made. I requested we go to the railroad station where my daddy worked for years. He sat on the rails and played his guitar. Then he got up, slung his guitar over his back and walked down the tracks. EVERY TIME I look at that B&W picture of him walking away I get teary. He's grown and old enough to go out on his own...
Yeah, don't blink.
How cute! My 5 year old calls dandelions "sunflowers" and there is nothing better than getting a bouquet of sunflowers!
