This is Noah, as we saw him yesterday…with full on energy, running down the apartment hallway..

..to flop onto this green pillow. The photo makes me think of a painting.

We loved having some time with this growing and changing little guy. As grandparents, I think we see the  turn around from birth to leaving home, at an accelerated pace. We know that parents need to grab the time now with their children while they are young, at home, but when we were in the midst of it ourselves, it never seemed to go so fast….especially as we were waiting eagerly for the hour when the children would be go to sleep and we could have some “free time”.  Now we wear our rose coloured glasses and it all looks wonderful, special, rosy.
