Popsicle kisses and big bear hugs, little boy trains, and jars full of bugs
I hung this in Patrick’s room before he was born. It’s a pretty fair description of little boys. Tonight we started packing up his room because we’ve decided it’s time to move on. As I drove back home tonight with his favorite song blaring, I started thinking about all the things he liked.
