This is a picture of my son on the day of his high school prom when he stopped to have his picture taken with his little sister.
It was just a moment, but it was a moment he took during the flurry of activity to make her feel so very special.
Tomorrow I will wake up and get ready for his graduation ceremony.
My little boy who now towers over me.
Such a day of bittersweet emotions.
I long for the past (seems like such a short time ago) when he could fit in the crook of my arm and snuggle on my knee,
Yet find myself drawn to the present, watching this handsome young man as he marks the passing of his childhood.
Stepping across the stage to accept his diploma and walk into a new world full of possibilities.
I look to this yet unknown future with marked anticipation.
For even though I know not where his path will take him-
I am quite certain the world will be a better place because he was in it.

Congratulations David, you handsome young man.We think of you often!
