It was lad’s birthday yesterday. We had a lovely day.
There was a sleepover for friends, pingpong in the park, homemade pizza, lots of treats, sushi, cuddles.
Amid all the hubbub and fun I spent the day glancing periodically at this tall, gangly eleven year old lad, my lad, our lad, and marvelling.
It doesn’t seem five minutes since he was the small bundle of fun in the picture above. The child I thought I’d never have.
In a quiet moment, I spotted this improv pixel quilt-in-the-making by Melissa Averinos.
Which, I think you’ll agree, is another marvel. ♥
