*11*

My darling Andrew turned 11 and on that very day he was wondering if he could watch an unscreened PG-13 movie because he "was a preteen you know."

He didn't get to watch the movie despite his new found maturity.

He did get some gifts that made him pretty darn happy though.





How I love this little boy.

He is thoughtful and sensitive and absentminded and moody and goofy. He is very black and white. There are times when I wonder how much emotion can fit inside his body without it oozing out his pores.

Here is to many happy years to come.
