Ok - so we all know....I see things differently than a lot of people....And I KNOW this is really weird, but...as we are sitting at Dylan's orthodontist appt - I notice he doesn't have the hands of a little boy anymore! He has "man hands!" And let me tell you - He FOUGHT me on taking a picture of his hands....I took this one, without him noticing!
So now....this is the BEFORE picture - in the car..........(with braces!)
And the AFTER picture. We stopped by to say hello to my mom - so she could see Dylan without braces. He just happened to have on his ROTC uniform today. You could tell she was EXTREMELY proud of him too!
Why do they always have to grow up so fast? This is so sad....it doesn't seem that long ago - that I was rocking this baby boy to sleep! Now I couldn't PICK HIM UP if I wanted too!

ReplyDeleteOh, you make me want to cry.
ReplyDeleteI just told my husband that I wish I could just stop time right now!
Oh geez. This makes me sad. Man hands? Ugh.
ReplyDeleteI get sick just thinking about my girls getting older!
ReplyDeleteThey grow up way way too fast! I bet he loves not having braces!
ReplyDeleteI recently took pictures of my son who is only 8 but had the same thoughts. I want him to stay this age forever. I don't want him to grow up and have man hands. LOL I would much rather prefer dirty little boy hands.
ReplyDeleteI bet he was happy to get his braces off.
What a handsome man and beautiful Momma!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it was one of the best days of his life getting those braces off (I know it was for me LOL). He's such a handsome young man. I know you're a proud mommy, no matter what age they are :)
