Time passes by

 



My daughter sent her father an album she had put together lovingly with pictures of all our immediate family. A picture of her on her tricycle was on the cover. All the pictures were enjoyable but this was our favorite.

It all seems so long ago--when the children were small and we were poor and lived out in the country in Upstate New York amid the snowflakes. There was a stream running through the property, and one day I woke up to a strange new sound. It was the sound of the creek, which had been frozen and was now rushing over the rocks--spring freshets!

When spring finally came, we were mad with joy!

The son and heir turned 12 this weekend. 12. He'll be starting the 7th grade in the fall.

Damn. Where did the time go?

Steve: Enjoy him as he is, before he becomes a teenager.

Mine is 22. In his age I was getting married - but he's such a kid, yet!
