A portrait of my child, once a week, every week, in 2015
Oh my boy, you look so grown up all in a sudden. How did this happen so quick? People warn you all the time : "he will grow fast, enjoy every seconds". It is so true. People don't lie when they tell you so. The happy thing is that we are enjoying most seconds. We do spend a lot of time all together as a family and there truly is no price-tag for these moments. If it wasn't for your dad being let go of his job when you were born, he'd be gone half of the year at sea, he would have missed so much already and your education would probably be out of control by now (read: I have the hardest time saying no to your angelic face, and you know it)! So even though we have gone through some challenging times, we are so thankful that he doesn't have to go away anymore. The connection between you two is so strong there is no way he would have been able to leave you for such long periods of time. Today we are thankful for the challenges we had to face and are looking forward with excited eyes to seeing what our future holds. And even though you look so grown up, you're still only half-a-dad-size. You are my little boy and I still love to call you my baby.
