Watching him grow, watching him scurry and speak and swing and smile, every day - for the rest of my life - is the best future I can imagine. I'll admit, sometimes it's hard not to mourn his babyhood, not to acknowledge a twinge of sorrow as each development pushes that time further into the past.
But then I watch him, and I wonder at the way my love for him grows faster than he does.
