He arrived on a Thursday.
He gave me happy baby kisses on a Friday.
We went for walks in the woods on a Saturday.
And took him to church on a Sunday.
He started school on a Monday.
We baked brownies and pancakes and mashed potatoes on a Tuesday.
He brought home a sweetheart named Tessa on Wednesday.
And left for college on a Thursday.
~for my son Ethan, on the day before we leave for Vermont.
Good to be Home 
My oldest is still 10…but I’ve seen enough to realize how true this is. And it makes me cry. You’re a poet! Hugging my 2 month old a little tighter…

This poem was short and sweet. I hope my mom thinks of me like this. Probably not, She has five kids. Will there be a part two?
Love the poem! It’s seems that fast!
Sweet memories. Hugs mama. I know a part of your heart goes with him.
It’s so hard to drop them off at college, though it’s a wonderful experience for them. Crying is quite permissible … {{Hugs}}
Hugs💚i have four kids in college. My son is probably leaving next summer for engineering college.
