People much wiser than I have always said about little ones that they grow up so fast. I never had any idea how fast until Kathy and I had a little one of our own. Carson is growing and growing and growing. For instance, just in the last couple of weeks he has switched from his racecar bed to a big boy bed. He has used his wits to outsmart his dadda into keeping some toys. He seems to have gotten over his fear of walking on the playground. He has learned that The Empire Strikes Back is the greatest movie ever...okay he may not think its the greatest movie ever, but he likes it cuz Luke and Vader sword fight. And shortly he will begin playing soccer.
Kathy and I can't believe how quickly he is growing and how time is flying by with Carson. It's hard to believe that he is about to begin playing sports. I am so excited about this prospect, but it makes me think about how quickly he has grown. I can't wait to see him in his soccer uniform running around in a big blob with Luke and the other kids chasing the ball.
I'm so grateful to have these moments with him and to watch him grow. And I know it will be the same with Courtney Grace. I know she will grow up just as fast. The added bonus will be we will get to see her grow up with a big brother. And I know Carson will be a great big brother. I am really looking forward to the way the two of them will interact. I even know that Carson will be a better big brother than I was. He will never pick on his little sister.....okay maybe a little. That's what big brothers do right?
I pray that I am able to take the time to pause and reflect on these special moments with Carson and with Courtney because they will be all grown up before we know it....at least that is what I've heard.
