MY WHAT A DIFFERENCE A YEAR MAKES!

Okay, so I'm reminiscing! I can't help it! My baby is growing up! It's just amazing how much older he seems to me these days. It breaks my heart! It's funny how, as a mother, you constantly look forward to the next "stage" only to find yourself saddened by the "stage" that seemed to pass so quickly...
I already know that I'll be the mother that stands up and cheers louder than anyone else in the crowd (just like my Mom did)! As another year goes by, I can't help but smile just looking at my beautiful boy. He'll always be my baby. I love being a mother more than anything in this world!

He's growing up so fast. Enjoy every second because before you know it he'll be graduating high school. I'll be right there in the stands with you cheering him on. We'll both be the loudest mom and mamaw!!! HA!! Just like I did with you and Lane. I know you were both embarrassed but oh well. That's the way it goes. My grandkids will have the loudest mamaw there!! HA!!

Lou, bring the duct tape for Mamaw, she'll be out there hollering at Bubby!! He does look so much older. That boy is ALL leg it seems like!! Funny how in that first picture he still has the baby face and now he looks like a little kid. You know my motto, time for another one.... HA HA HA HA HA (as if mine was planned... :) )
