In that moment I saw a flash of Cole as a teenager, all legs and giant feet (like his daddy). My heart turned over in my chest and my head reeled. I don't want these moments to end. So, please, take a vacation future.

Dear Future...
... we are really enjoying our road trip to Seattle. But will you do me a favor, could you please slow down? Stop coming at me and just let me live in the now! This trip has provided so many great memories which I will keep forever. But it is also giving me glimpses into the future... a future I am just not ready for. As we drove into Couer d'Alene tonight, the sun was setting in front of us, casting a warm pink glow on the lake and trees. In the failing light I glanced back at Cole and saw two little feet propped up on the seat.

Time is flying! Jake starts second grade today, and it makes me realize we will never get this time back.
I swear that two posts ago you were so anxious for all the boys to be off an in school...but I digress.
I completely agree. Andy's getting so big, I can hardly fit him in my lap to cuddle. It won't be long before he doesn't want to cuddle with his mama anymore
Ditto, ditto, ditto! TOO FAST!
