My son also turned 9 this week (on Tuesday). I told my husband, "I can't believe he's already 9!" and he responded, "Halfway until he's out of the house." Our daughter is 19 and off at college, so those 9 years feel even shorter. Right now he's the sweetest, cuddliest, lap-swimming, piano-playing, Mario and Zelda master and I just want to bottle up this time so that I can sneak hits of it later when he doesn't want to build Lego with his mom anymore.
Happy Spring -- I'm sure it's the pollen in my eyes making me teary!

Love this! Our kids would probably get along great, many shared interests haha.
This was such a beautiful tribute to your father in law, may he rest in peace and carry on through your boys!💙
