freckles.

looking at the little sprinkling on his nose brings to my mind and heart such feeling.
simple feeling.
complicated feeling.
my first born son.
i experience nearly every "first" of parenting with this
precious, frustrating, childish, wise, hilarious, deep, trusting, bossy, complainy, sweet
eight year old boy.
yep.
i get all that from freckles.
his freckles are a symbol of him.
he is my treasure.
i am truly grateful.

  1. aw...love how you call him your "treasure." I just started calling my girls my "treasures" when I tuck them in at night. Their smiles swallow up their faces when I say it to them. They love to hear how precious they are. But then, dont we all? :)
    Have a good weekend!
