Don't Blink

As soft gusts of wind picked up speed and whistled through the adjacent cracks in our car windows, I marveled at how I’d only been away six days and returned to this:




A face that nearly overnight seemed to have grown into a young boy, his feet never stopping, his mind ever-racing and his heart overflowing. His voice different, his sentences more profound and his emotions matured in the span of a simple week. In just nine days he’ll be two and a half years old. I can’t even imagine what he’ll surprise me with then.

So I’ll continue to do my best as Kenny advises and not blink, because he’s right…life goes so much faster than you think.

Don’t.blink.
