I can count on 1 hand the number of times/reasons why my husband has cried in 21 years...and I'd have fingers left over too.
A Marine with 18 yrs under his belt and a trained counselor who knows how to deal with his emotions.
He cried tonight when we went to The Boy's open house for preschool. (in the car)
I swear to you a chubby cheeked, baseball shaped head baby boy who was 7 1/2 months old just came to live with us (for a little while) like last week! Is it even possible that little boy will start preschool in a week and a half?? Will he really be 4 in a few months?
Where does the time go? But a 56 yr old man is crying because his little boy is growing up way too fast.
***I went back thru my blog to find a very old picture of The Boy, before he was The Boy.
Here is what I found. http://blakesmeme.blogspot.com/2007/02/if-your-thinking-of-becoming-foster.html
I used to tell my husband he was ugly! I know, I know. I was building a wall, so as not to fall in love with him. We all know how that turned out.
I remember exactly the day that picture was taken, and trust me...it was yesterday.

That's one of the sweetest things I've heard in a long time. And that picture - those CHEEKS! They just kill me! I'd be wanting to pinch them all the time and I'm sure The Boy would be having none of that. Ha!
What a lucky little boy to have a foster daddy that loves him so much!
OHHH NO, Nichole!
He IS his daddy. No foster daddy to this one. This is our Boy. This one stays for good.
Look how little he was!! Can I have the little girl by the basket?
Sweet,our little one is in pre-K now,and I am still "ok" with that,but the thought of her turning (5)! Now that one gets to me...5 seems so much older.Def. leaving the baby stage. We are still waiting for a placement,so hard to be waiting yet again. We know God will bring us our next little one,hope he hurrys.Jill
