i'm going to try my best to slow things down. to remember every detail of the day. to savor every single moment. it's that quote..."life is not lived in minutes...but in moments" something like that.
so when pratt is 16 and doesn't have time to eat breakfast with his mom...i'll remember this picture. and how at one time, he absolutely loved it.
we sit for long periods of time. at the breakfast table. in front of the window. with the blinds pulled up halfway so he can see out. he leans over with his sticky fingers...and he rubs them on the glass. and smiles. i think it's cool to his touch.
pratt with a bowl of fruit and a multigrain, low fat waffle. me with black, hot coffee. and of course, his sippy cup.
he rubs his toes on my knees.
and when he's full, he will make a noise that i'm convinced is the word, "done".
and he will start to chunk pieces of food on the floor. he'll lean wayyyy over to watch them fall and then giggle when ace comes over and gobbles them up.
and then he'll look up at me with those big, chocolate eyes.
and i'll kiss his face. that smells like fruit juice.
