when daddy comes home

Today I want to remember you in your crazy mismatched jammers crawling as fast as you can to talk to your daddy. You adore him. You get so excited when you hear him come home and as soon as he picks you up you wave bye-bye to me. You want to go with him so badly. Someday you will be putting on your own boots and waving goodbye to me as you and dad leave to go to the farm. When that day comes I may never see you again! Until then we will wave to daddy as he drives away in his big red truck. And as soon as you hear the backdoor creaking open again, you will be racing to the mud room to greet him.

I love this picture! You captured such a great moment! It didn't need to show Levi's face, you can just feel his excitement, especially with your words!

That picture is so precious. I have three boys (24, 16, 13) and their all-boy traits have always touched a soft spot within me. Work boots, toy trucks & cars, guns made from sticks (you name it), etc. Oh, to have my boys that little again : ) Merry Christmas!
