And even though you know he is capable and able to do the greatest things, you still see him as that cute little kid that made you laugh so hard it made tears roll down your face. That bundle of joy that would happily entertain you by singing songs learned at daycare and later proudly wear badges earned in boy scouts. And that same boy that made you close your eyes to keep from watching something so dangerous (like climbing on things meant to be climbed). That dangerous playground that he so enjoyed and it was all you could do not to sweep him up pre-boo-boo because you could not watch without worry. Maybe he would be hurt. And so, you closed your eyes (not the one in the back of your head ~ that is not even a possibility and yes kids those eyes are well focused and are just as capable to watch grandchildren too) and over time we both grew stronger, more confident and well just reckless in my mind but how would I know? I raised him with my eyes closed.
Love you Sean E Baby! 💖
