Happy Birtheday Sam!

My oldest son turned 12 yesterday! Where does the time go. I am waxing nostalgic for the days of finger painting and making cookies with mom. Although there are many moments I am looking forward to, I somehow yearn for the past. Does anyone else feel this way. There are days I want to put all my kids in a bottle and freeze them the way they are now. I guess I just fundamentally hate change. As a side note, I don't like getting older either. All of my issues aside, I have the best 12-year-old boy a mom could hope for. Sam, we love you!

PS. Am I the only one who doesn't think a 12-year-old needs an tPod Touch?

I feel that way, too, Melissa! 12 is quite a milestone for us all. I have a 12-year-old, too, and I am always reminiscing about when she was little. Hope Sam had a great birthday!
