On the Eve of Rowan's Birthday

My son turns 7 tomorrow.

Time really flies when kids are around. One minute they're crawling, next they're riding their bikes in the 'allowed area', with more freedom every day.  He still climbs on the counters, he has been since he was two.  He still has the sugar demon, the one that needs food or the crash is monumental.  He can build mega-Lego structures for hours without a break. He can ride his bike faster than his friends.  He still has a hard time trying new things, still throws a fit when I go out and he's tired.  He's his sisters' best friend.  Loves them both immensely.  Teaches Eliana all she needs to know. Defends her. Protects her.

I look forward to another year of exciting discoveries.  To see how his mind explores the world.  To help him discover what he truly loves.

Rowan will be 7. 

Wow.
